From an article at the Daily Caller entitled, “Jews speak out against American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee decision to honor Helen Thomas”:
Prominent Jewish voices are speaking out against the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee’s (ADC) decision to honor former White House reporter and harsh critic of Israel, Helen Thomas, with their Mehdi Courage in Journalism award.
It’s great to see Jews taking the ADC to task for honoring Helen Thomas. They should have had shown the same energy in condemning the founder of ADC, James Abourezk, when he chose to sit on the Board of Advisers for the Free Gaza Movement. The Free Gaza movement helped organize the Hamas Flotilla with a whole host of other American Progressive Democrat organizations.
Oh well, file under better late than never. We were beginning to think Progressive Jews were okay with their Progressive brethren organizing a social jihad against Israel, silence being consent and all.
