Obama and the "Jewish" Lobby
BTW, the Israel lobby and the Jewish lobby is the same thing. Anyone that tells you different is a tool, an antisemite or both. What is a Jewish lobby without Israel? Israel is a Jewish state, the only Jewish state vs. 57 members of the Islamic conference. Bill Levinson sent this to me:
Emily, the same moderator with whom I had a run-in at MyBO (and who established "exercise of editorial control" that we can cite in holding the Obama campaign accountable for all the hate speech at MyBO), was kind enough to let the world know that "Israel Lobby" is acceptable terminology at My.BarackObama.com. Well, maybe she didn't mean to let the whole world know, but we can rectify that omission for her.
A My.BarackObama.com user re-posted the following E-mail he received from a site administrator or moderator, who is therefore an official representative of Barack Obama’s campaign. Emily is obviously counseling EMK to use “Israel Lobby” (the title of Walt and Mearsheimer’s infamous book) as code for “Jewish Lobby.”
Hi [EMK],
Thank you so much for your involvement in the My.BarackObama online community. Your voice is valued here; however, we were forced to remove your recent blog post that referred to the “Jewish lobby.” Please use the more specific and accurate term “Israel lobby.” We appreciate your understanding and hope that you continue to be active in our online community.
Emily
Obama for America
