Over the last week there has been a significant outcry in Israel and in some Jewish circles in the US about an ugly, anti-Semitic, and sexist ad campaign against the US-based New Israel Fund (NIF), a key funder of Israeli civil society and human rights groups.
The originator of the campaign, the far-right group Im Tirtzu (meaning “if you will it,” which is a fragment of a famous sentence of Herzl’s about the founding of Israel,) has drawn condemnation across more of the political spectrum than usual. What has caused the most outrage is a picture of an evil-looking Naomi Chazan, board president of the NIF, with a horn coming out of her head, a classic anti-Semitic trope. But more attention should be paid to the text of the ad: “Without the New Israel Fund, there could be no Goldstone Report, Israel would not be facing international accusations of war crimes.”

IRI cyber groupie can't spell "fooled" or "sheer"
by AMIR1973 on Sun Feb 14, 2010 06:07 PM PSTIMF, after attending flight school to pilot IRI's latest advanced fighter plane, i.e. Saeqeh, I think you should also attend elementary school to learn basic English spelling.
P.S. The "self-inflicted hate" line is getting rather stale, my dear IRI cyber groupie.
