Paragraph 2--You might as well say that it is impossible to against anti-Semitism and be anti-vegan or anti-anything you chose.

Paragraph 3--If we do not speak in terms of the commonly accepted definitions, the we are participating in an exercise of mental masturbation. Maybe in a generation the term anti-Semitic will mean something else...hopefully it will become archaic. Meanwhile, I reject allowing someone who is Arab, as I suppose Massad is from looking him up on the internet, co-opt the term anti-Semitic to include his group, so that that well-defined term is turned against Jews. For me the is the quintessence of anti-Semitism.
