American Library Association: Zionism Is Racism
From the people who brought you the argument that John Ashcroft suppresses free speech but Cuba is a haven for free speech and animated public debate, we now have the argument that Zionism is racism:
[On] the Internet... When young people aren’t getting their sex education off XXX-rated sites, they’re learning politics from the Freeman Web page, or race relations from Klan sites. There is no quality control on the Web, and there isn’t likely to be any.
The Freeman Center for Strategic Studies is a major Houston based nonprofit that regularly publishes articles by, among others, Caroline Glick (Jerusalem Post goddess), Daniel Pipes (Cold Warrior and enemy of idiotarians everywhere), Louis Rene Beres (Princeton PhD and Professor of Political Science and International Law at Purdue University), and Paul Eidelberg (Bar Illan University lecturer and director of the Foundation for Constitutional Democracy). The Klan, of course, is a virulently anti-Semitic hate-group that publishes nothing legitimate by anyone worth reading. So there's that difference, at least. Sure, the Freeman Center's webpage has annoying Java animations and looks like it was designed by someone's 7 year old nephew, but that certainly doesn't rise to the level of, say, brutal public lynchings.
My concern is not so much that the ALA is a case-study in nonchalant and routine Leftist anti-Semitism. It's that nobody cares.
