In reply to the discussion: Israel sees Palestinian children as 'potential terrorists', panel finds [View all]shira
(30,109 posts)48. There's a difference b/w rightwing sources, liberal ones, and hard left ones....
The "Left" that you see being bashed by supporters of Israel is hostile not only to rightwingers or neocons, but also liberals. It's this Stalinist "Left" (not all the left as there's a very decent left too) that lumps both right-wingers and liberals together.
This Stalinist Left is nearly indistinguishable from the Fascist Right. Both are sympathetic to totalitarian movements. Both hate liberals.
