While it may be true that anti-semitism is on the rise, it isn't right to stereotype intellectuals as anti-semites. That is a stereotype that is very harmful to our young people. It makes them afraid to appear intelligent for fear of being called an anti-semite and makes them hesitant to speak their mind regarding politics.

Its another way of silencing dissent. I will always fight back when I hear stereotypes being put forward that are simply untrue - even if it means fighting fire with fire. To remain silent empowers the bully. Just look the other way and don't make waves has never been my mode of operation. I'm too old too change now.

Turn the other cheek? I have never been so meek.
