1. A Good First Step - York University suspends student running anti-Semitic Website - this should not take long, unless the bleeding hearts get hold of it - I mean the bastard has apparently admitted to his call for genocide against Jews -

"After the Post reported on the police investigation, Mr. Hossain was unapologetic and defended his support for a genocide against Jews, writing, "Yes, I can call for the slaughter of an entire people."

2. Meanwhile, IAW Marches On - This is truly a disgusting event - not because it criticizes Israel - which is fine as long as the type of criticism is the consistent as that leveled at other nations - but because the criticism is so extreme and so divergent from reality that it easily falls into Natan Sharansky's 3D test - demonization, double standards and delegitimization -and amounts to antisemitism.

3. Turkish Turkey - You can always count on the PM of Turkey to say something completely idiotic - 'Rachel's Tomb was never Jewish'. Hey pal, guess what? I'm not sold on the whole "Mohammed flew to heaven on a horse from the Dome of the Rock" thing - what do you say to that?

"Why do those who love the Palestinians never march for the Chechens, the Tibetans, the Sudanese, the Congolese? People who speechify endlessly on the Palestinians show no interest in the Uighurs. Those who care about only one of the world’s downtrodden peoples naturally arouse suspicion that something other than humanitarian feeling is behind their rhetoric."
