(14,851 posts)1. Did you add your own commentary to the article ?
I don't see the word "cool" in the article .
Are you attempting to alter articles of record ?

(45,850 posts)2. so ZOA isn't "cool" with it ?
I wonder if one of our commenter here who has mentioned being a member of ZOA has anything to say about her or the OP itself?
here is what she said that apparently upsets some folks
Mr. Orens comments could quell the lingering effects of comments that Ms. Power made before entering government about American policy toward Israel. Among other things, she said the United States would need to make a mammoth commitment to secure a Palestinian state a move that could mean alienating American Jews, a group she described as having tremendous political and financial import.
The Republican Jewish Coalition and the Zionist Organization of America expressed their opposition to Ms. Power. In a statement, Morton A. Klein, the national president of the Zionist Organization, said, Ms. Powers record clearly shows she is viscerally hostile to Israel.

and the word "cool" was quite obviously an editorial comment at least to anyone not looking for what's not there

(14,851 posts)3. So it's "ok" to add commentary to OP articles
With no delineation of what's in the original article and what was added by the poster?
In my work a person would lose their job or position for less.

(45,850 posts)4. I would think the obvious "delineation" is the space between the article body and the single word
but it's nice to know things are so exacting in your 'work' which is????????

azurnoir
