Today we focus on anti-Semitism, the Zionists definition of which has been broadened to include almost all criticism of Israel as well as support of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. The charge of anti-Semitism has been weaponized and is being used to squelch free speech on campuses as well as the wider community. This does a disservice not only to those are using legitimate, non violent actions to resist the Israeli occupation, but a disservice to the Jewish people who need energy to be put into opposing the rising tide of genuine antisemitism. Today we hear a discussion of this by author, journalist and teacher Peter Beinart, Barnard College Professor Nadia El-Haj, and Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi.
This Week In Palestine (a weekly part of Truth and Justice Radio) is an award-winning three-quarter-hour segment of news from Palestine and discussion of issues relevant to the Palestinians' struggle for freedom from Israel's brutal military occupation and colonization of their homeland. It speaks from the point of view of Palestinians and those who care about them. It's a regular part of Truth and Justice Radio, aired Sundays 6-10am ET on WZBC 90.3FM, Newton, MA, streaming live and archived for two weeks at wzbc.org; TJR's website, truthandjusticeradio.org, has a link to This Week In Palestine archives back thru 1-6-2008. (At this important time, TJR has been airing Palestine coverage IN ADDITION to that provided by This Week In Palestine.) We hope you'll write to us at tjradio@fastmail.com if you rebroadcast our work, or have questions or comments.
