And where do we make this dividing line, hm? Palestinians, like Jews,
are known for having a wide diaspora and participate actively in the
"wider solidarity movement." Are we supposed to raise questions of
anti-Semitism with the white Christians, Jews, Libyans, Lebanese, etc.
in the movement, but when it comes to a Palestinian activist say "no,
sorry, you're Palestinian, so I can't discuss this with you?"

This is why I keep making issue of Joaquin's ignorance of this
particular struggle, which becomes more apparent every time he posts
about it. You (plural) are creating this artificial dividing line
between "the Palestinians" and "the wider movement," completely not
realizing that Palestinians *are* the driving force in the "wider
solidarity movement."

When some neo-Nazi shitbag comes into a meeting and starts talking
about how evil the Jews are (and keep in mind this not only HAS
happened, it CONTINUES to happen), are we supposed to sit back and not
say anything because some Palestinian ears *might* hear some criticism
of their oh-so-justified hatred of Jews?

Is there a list of who we're allowed and who we're NOT allowed to
discuss these issues with?

Adam
