The guy advocated mass murder and put the blame for anti-semitism on the victims. He can go to hell, and the hypocrisy of the far left has never been clearer when it comes to "speech has consequences".

So I take it you are equally offended when Alan Dershowitz et al basically advocate Third Reich tactics in eliminating Palestinians at all costs?

Yes, Dershowitz has long gone far off the reservation on this issue. It's not uncommon when it comes to outsiders.

Did he? Neither, surely, follows from those tweets cited above.

He wants for thousands of people to "go missing" in a callback to an event that almost everyone knew would end with the gruesome discovery that it did.

And he more than once said that Israel is the cause of anti-semitism (and even described it as "noble" because Israel), which puts him about four thousand years off the mark as to the origin.

The thing is the charge of anti-semitism is massively overused when it comes to Israel. I mean Sheldon Silver called Zephar Teachout an anti-semite for saying she'd support the Obama administration on Israel. Come on.

That's no reason to dismiss very clear examples of people being wildly anti-semitic.
