Knesset to hold hearings on J Street being “anti-Israel”. As Shakespeare might say: “I think the lady doth protest too much”

March 11, 2011

Check this out in the Jerusalem Post http://www.jpost.com/International/Article.aspx?id=211483 This is really unbelievable. [It is even more outrageous than the Muslim hearings that took place today by Rep Peter King] – but ultimately it really shows 1) what a force J Street is becoming – but also 2) how scary internal Israeli politics is becoming. In a sense, the fact of this hearing taking place, only proves J Street’s point that Israel democracy is in jeopardy. It seems that J Street’s actions are creating fear in Israel’s right wing – they fear that if people really listen to J Street it will expose their policies for what they are.
