The Politics of Anti-Semitism In the US, there is very little ideological space to criticize the policies of the Israeli government without being labelled anti-Semitic. HIPJ rediscovered this fact some time ago. Apparently, this plague extends to Canada also. A few months ago, Counterpunch published a book called 'The Politics of Anti-Semitism'. This book contains essays written by Edward Said, Norman Finklestein, Robert Fisk, Alexander Cockburn etc. A self-hating Jew called Jason Sherman reviewed this book for the Toronto Globe and Mail. He reviewed the book favourably. He also reviewed another book called 'The New Anti-Semitism' and slammed it as hysterical because it included statements like: The editors refused to publish this review. According to Jason, this is the first time a review of his has been turned down. You can find the entire story here
