How does an organization with that tag line go down the path to anti-Zionism (in this case, anti-Israel)? Seems they have been led astray.

Normalization of anti-Semitism from the left is a sign of the rising fascism in this country. They can "justify" their bigotry, but it is bigotry nonetheless. Funny how they are against stereotyping, yet engage in in it as well as propaganda.

ETA: HAHAHAHAHA! The responses are great! "White Knights in thongs!". I am beyond happy to see push back!

1) A Magen David is a JEWISH symbol, not necessarily Zionist.

2) Non-Jews do NOT get to tell Jews what their symbols mean.

3) There's nothing wrong with Zionism anyway.

4) Please try to hold your slut walk in Gaza. Let me know how that works out for you. I look forward to the results.

...in ALL pride marches next year, and any significant event sponsored by GLBT groups which DID NOT condemn the Chicago Dyke march or defended them, we should wear this...



Or a variation of my avatar. Make it even more pronounced with what we are protesting by including the word "Jude" in the middle.
