Phyllis Chesler:
Demonized for Failing to Attack Conservative ChristiansContinue reading
The Jewish Wars in Cyberspace
I’m sitting here, minding my own business, when I suddenly and unexpectedly receive the kindest and fairest of letters from the editor-in-chief of ZEEK, which is a Forward-affiliated journal. Jo Ellen Green Kaiser alerted me to a piece just posted by her online publication. She said that her online editor Joel Schalit, and the author Rachel Tabachnik, both failed to show the piece to her or to allow me to comment. Kaiser did so. My response appears now at ZEEK. I am adding to that response here, at my own blog.
The first six paragraphs of the piece quote me at length and accurately. Quotes are taken from my books The New Anti-Semitism, and The Death of Feminism, and from various interviews in The National Review, The Guardian, FOX News, and from a Symposium at FrontPage. The remaining fourteen paragraphs are an all-out attack on the right-wing Christian supporters of the teenage apostate Rifqa Bary. After trying to pigeonhole and demonize me in terms of my association with David Horowitz, Robert Spencer, Nonie Darwish, Wafa Sultan, Daniel Pipes, etc., Tabachnick describes me as “an unlikely star in some sectors of the Religious Right world….most recently for her interviews and commentary concerning Rifqa Bary.” I am proud to work alongside people who support Israel and oppose Islamist terrorism.

There is no a longer a feminist - or a leftist movement to speak of.
There are only the defenders of Arab and Islamic fascism.
Right on, Laura.
