Waiting for @jonathanweisman to respond to some of the criticsm leveled against that @nytimes hit piece on @Klmarcus since he promoted the piece last night. Here's some criticism to respond to:
https://twitter.com/LahavHarkov/status/1039761350694764544 … & https://twitter.com/NoahPollak/status/1039703227913003008 …
You're changing the subject but I edited the Marcus piece. I stand by it 100%. It was in no way a hit piece.
So this is an accurate description of Kenneth Marcus? "a longtime opponent of Palestinian rights causes."
Would you describe Palestinian Campaign for the Academic and Cultural Boycott of Israel, as an organization that "used to pressure campuses to squelch pro-Israel speech and activities?" If not, why not?
It's a hell of a lot more accurate than your description of the Brandeis Center using the same language.
Hey @JGreenblattADL here's a guy you feted as an expert on anti-Semitism promoting BDS. Do you oppose BDS or not? If you do then speak out against @jonathanweisman .
Agreed. @JGreenblattADL promoted Weisman,.
At least Greenblatt spoke out against the article though I doubt very much he'll backtrack on his support for Wesiman even though he edited the piece:https://twitter.com/mr_markjacobs/status/1039910945445826560 …
Isn’t it standard journalistic practice to refer to people like Marcus as pro-Israel, not anti-Palestinian (while people like Omar Barghouti are described as pro-Palestinian, not anti-Israel)?
The IHRA definition of antisemitism was adopted by the State Dept during the Obama administration and by 31 countries:

it is only contested on the political fringes and is thus not “hotly contested” in general
@ericalg
This is not objective reporting on an important issue. It is tainted by the clear opinions of the writer and editor. It is bs articles like this that made me cancel my subscription. Embarrassing really.
Weisman is the one who compiled a list of Jews in Congress and their positions on the Iran deal, yes? Seems like a trustworthy source on issues of anti Semitism.
The hit piece on Marcus has all the code words for Jews that anti-Semites recognize and is reminiscent of the hit piece on opponents of the Iran deal that highlighted Jewish members in yellow (of all colors) and questioned their loyalty to America.
Jonathan, thanks for reminding my progressive Jewish kids why their dad pays for the Journal and gloats as the #NewYorkTimes pension continues to evaporate (despite lots of friends that work there). Your mottled view of Jewish is self-aggrandizing tripe
Progressives are Stalin's wet dream.
Do better. Your newspaper’s news and editorial coverage of everything connected with the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is abysmal and biased. It’s sickening.
.@jonathanweisman That's because you're a never-in-danger, well trained "good" (as in, against your own) uniquely American Jew. All other world Jews do not hate Israel they know that ingratiating yourself to antisemites does not save you from pogroms or gas chambers.
What is the subject? And why aren’t you responding to the criticism? This “We can do wrong” attitude and digging in your position no matter how obviously misguided it is, not even bothering to come up with an explanation - isn’t very professional. Explain or correct, please.
Then NYT would do the it's a Jewish holiday racist piece on the Orthodox so I stopped subscribing.Then I heard you wrote your antisemitism book so I thought you had figured out for antisemitism there were not "good" Jews like you and others. I was wrong. But you'll learn. 2/
.@jonathanweisman is a turd.
.@jonathanweisman The progressives and .@nytimes are the closest thing to Stalin-style purges and would likely welcome USSR-style state-sponsored antisemitism. Like, ethnicity in passport and Jews reduced to "them". Fuck .@nytimes.
