Here we go again... I could never follow up on all the pro/anti-Semitism wars on Wikipedia, but *everything else aside*, I find it very peculiar that all have one single thing in common: you on one side and hateful crowds of anti-Zionists and anti-Semits and soon-to-be-Nazis on the other.

First off, you are confused about word the word "anti-Zionist" means. Please read the new, improved article on this topic which Danny, myself, and Adam Carr all worked on. Danny is anti-Zionist...but that doesn't make him an anti-Semite out for blood. Members of my own family are non-Zionist and anti-Zionist, and they don't hate the Jews.

(That being said, most anti-Zionists today also have anti-Semitic views. The problem is that people are using the same word ("anti-Zionism") to refer to many different things. Last year, no one saw this problem. After I made this point in new ways, a number of times, others here finally figured that out. Hence the new improved article.

Doesn't this strike you as too much of a coincidence as well?

Why would it be coincidence that anti-Semite would not like a Jew? It would be odd if they loved Jews!

Maybe they're anti-RK, not anti-Semitic, ever thought of that? Seriously. Did it ever cross your mind?

No, and I think the problem is that you have no idea what I was talking about. I was talking about the many explicitly anti-Semitic posts made by a number of Wikipedia users, which were well-documented.

What caused trhew problem was that Martin and a few others here began to defend this explicitly anti-Semitic Nazi material as correct. (They even denied that it was anti-Semitic.)

When it was proven (beyond any shadow of a doubt) that large amounts of anti-Semitic were being pushed on Wikipedia, the response on this list was to defend the Nazi material and make personal attacks on me. (People imagined that it was I who wrote the analysis. Actually, it was written by someone else. I can forward you copy of the posting.)

So, no, it didn't cross my mind that people who accept Nazi propaganda are not anti-Semitic. The term "anti-Semitic" is the only one possible for people who defend NAzi (or Christian Identity) anti-Jewish propaganda. (And again, you must remember that I talking about very specific edits, which I can show you. This is not a vague allegation.)

What made me sad was that other Jewish people on Wikipedia agreed with me, and wrote me letters off-line, but they refused to say so on line. They stated that their were afraid that Wiki-En users would gang up on them as well. (They were probably correct.)
