The ADL is upset….again. This time with the decision by UNICEF to reject all donations from Israel’s multi billionaire Lev Leviev. In a press release issued yesterday by them they insisted that UNICEF change its policy on this matter claiming that it “smacks of selective political discrimination.” They further stated that “This decision only gives legitimacy to those who would seek to promote a boycott of the State of Israel and its supporters.”
Perhaps those who seek to promote a boycott of the State of Israel and its supporters ARE LEGITIMATE…. did Foxman ever consider that? Did Foxman ever once consider that it is both illegal and immoral to build settlements for Jewish habitation only on lands belonging to the Palestinian people? Did Foxman ever once consider the fact that discrimination and hatred are not commodities as he might like them to be? Since its founding in 1913, the ADL has raked in billions of dollars selling the concept of hatred… it is alien to their line of thinking that another organisation would not follow in their path.
When the story of UNICEF’S decision broke, I posted THIS about the situation. I am very pleased that their position has not been reversed despite the pressure from the Barons of Hate… it adds total legitimacy to their very being…. hopefully their actions will be an example to others.
HATRED IS NOT FOR SALE!
NEITHER IS PALESTINE!!

Jews Sans Frontiers has a nice piece on this, taking on both Foxman and Leviev.

“Selective political discrimination” ? Is this guy serious? Has the word “anti-Semitic” finally lost all meaning?!?!?!
