I get the impression that not much was said other than "draw a line between anti-Zion and anti-Semite." The Left has a Puritan core that says "anyone, anywhere having a good time is bad." Israel is a powerful, prosperous state and Tel Aviv is the happiest party town on the planet. Lefties are never going to be happy as individuals nor will they accept other people or peoples who are. My parents were Commies, but I have spent my life learning and a person with their eyes open to the world simply couldn't be a Lefty of any persuasion today. Thank you for reporting.

It suggests that the Jews don't have a legal right to the land and must leave, despite the fact that there have been Jews living there for thousands of years, and there are even those Jewish families which can actually trace their family lines back hundreds of years in land of what is now Israel. These "fight the occupation" people living in the United States are most likely children or grandchildren of immigrants. Why don't they leave and go back to where their ancestors come from? I'm sure many Native Americans would love to have their land back, with the infrastructure intact, just as the Palestinians would love to see the Jews to depart and leave all that they have built behind.
