The absurd Arab arguments against the IHRA working definition of antisemitism

As mentioned in my previous post, 122 Arab intellectuals wrote a letter to The Guardian opposing the IHRA working definition of antisemitism. Let's look at their arguments.1. The fight against antisemitism must be deployed within the frame of international law and human rights.

Sometimes the absence of news is news.The official Palestinian Wafa news agency didn't even cover the story of the assassination of Iranian defense official and nuclear scientist Mohsen Fakhrizadeh.Wafa covers every phone call that Mahmoud Abbas makes or receives, but there was no statement by him or any other Palestinian official denouncing Fakhrizadeh's death or...

Today, November 29, is the UN-designated International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People.The irony is unreal.The day was chosen because it is the anniversary of the UN Partition resolution that called for two states in British Mandate Palestine - a Jewish state and an Arab state.If Arabs had accepted the partition, the Arab State would be much larger than...
