It's anti-semitic according to the EUMC definition, which the US state dept. adopted. shira Jan 2013 #16

you mean the defination that was shelved and never adopted that one? n/t azurnoir Jan 2013 #18

Tell that to the US State Dept., which still uses that very definition. shira Jan 2013 #19

the US state department under George Bush supposedly used it according to CIF Watch azurnoir Jan 2013 #20

As I said earlier, your mindset is hopeless. Jefferson23 Jan 2013 #35

Bullshit. Criticism of Israel on par w/ criticism of other countries is fine.... shira Jan 2013 #38

Keep missing the point of the film, you're good at it. n/t Jefferson23 Jan 2013 #48

how can it violate a resolution that was never ever adopted? n/t azurnoir Jan 2013 #23

It was clearly adopted (especially the Nazi comparison) by the US State Dept. n/t shira Jan 2013 #25

you keep claiming that but provide absolutely no actual proof why? n/t azurnoir Jan 2013 #26

No proof? The Forward Article shows it was in effect Sept 2012.... shira Jan 2013 #29

I'll refer you to my earlier post ... Fantastic Anarchist Jan 2013 #33

You're deflecting. And what's happening in Israel now is nothing like 1930's Germany. n/t shira Jan 2013 #34

I'm not deflecting. You accuse me of what you were doing. Fantastic Anarchist Jan 2013 #39
