And the source of the charge of antisemitism against Counterpunch is
pretty clear: the distinguished Israeli Labor Party statesman Abba Eban
said years ago that the task of dialogue with the gentile world is to show
that anti-Zionists are either antisemites or neurotic self-hating Jews,
like Noam Chomsky and I. F. Stone... --CGE
