UNDERSTANDING
THE GOLDSTONE REPORT

The NYT ran a piece by Patricia Cohen which presented Rosenfeld as a right-winger attacking liberal criticism of Israel.  Landes, at Augean Stables, took the opportunity to both fisk the article and discuss the broader problem of Jewish self-criticism.

Jewish Hypercritics of Israel Criticized: How Dare You?

The NYT has a discussion of a controversy within the Jewish community about when criticism of Israel not only oversteps the bounds of decency, but rather feeds the current wave of anti-semitism that began in late 2000 and continues to gain momentum. Before discussing the article, which I think misframes the issues in critical ways, I want to make some remarks about what I think is at stake here (using the terminology developed at Second Draft and Augean Stables).

The American Jewish Committee, a liberal, mainstream organization which has been as dedicated to defending the rights of others, as it has been of Jews for the last century, and, until quite recently, reflected the Politically-Correct Paradigm PCP1 position (pro-Oslo, pro-dialogue, pro-negotiations), has published an essay that criticizes Jews who, embracing the Post-Colonial Paradigm PCP2 criticize Israel so harshly and categorically that in some cases they have called for the dismantling of the state. In so doing, Rosenfeld argues, they actually feed the anti-Semitic delirium that, since 2000, has grown stronger by the year.

The primary issue at stake in this debate concerns the nature of criticism, more precisely, since we’re talking about Jew criticizing Israel, “self-criticism.” This is one of the most difficult issues to deal with right now for a number of reasons:

  There are Reebok Easytone Shoes, and then there are walking shoes that claim to boost your muscle tone by just walking around in them. Reebok EasyTone is one line that promises to increase your muscle tone – in fact, they claim it’s like taking the gym with you just by wearing the Men's Reebok Zigtech. With celebrities like Stacey Keibler and the Kardashians promoting the Reebok EasyTone Trainers, it’s hard not to wonder if there is some truth to it. I’d love to be mistaken for Kim Kardashian from behind, and if these shoes are going to get me there, then I’m ready to try them!The Easytone Trainers claim is that the EasyTone Shoes is like taking the gym with you. It’s hard for me to comment on that, because it really depends on what you do at the gym. If you regularly work out for half-hour or more doing intense cardio and weights, then this will not be your typical gym experience. But, if you’re a fitness walker, then I think you will love Easytone for their benefits,Reebok Zig pul...
