Anti-Semitism Erupts
 For the eight odd million Jews scattered over the planet and not living in Israel, events concerning Israel cannot be dismissed as if they were occurring in someone else's back yard.
Whether a Jew is right-wing or left-wing, extreme or moderate, orthodox, conservative, reformed, atheist, academic, intellectual, poor or rich, whatever gender, whatever orientation, whatever country in which he or she is a citizen, whether he or she hates Israel or loves it, feels empathy or none, whether his name is Chomsky or Rabin or has changed his name from Zimmerman to Dylan, whether he stands cheering on a boat where people are yelling death to the Jews, whether he belongs to J Street, AIPAC or the hundreds of Jewish groups of every persuasion, whether he has changed his religion, his appearance or his underwear, he or she is by international fiat and historical reality, forever and eternally, the "Jew", the world's whipping boy, the persecuted and reviled, the loathsome and malevolent, the greedy, grasping and cunning, no matter how much charity, compassion and selflessness he exhibits, no matter how he abides by the rules of law and civilized society, no matter how he professes his love for humanity, no matter his long history of victimization and brutal persecution.
