Natorei Karta, Jewish Voice For Peace Among ADL's Top 10 Anti-Israel Groups

By JPOST.COM STAFF
10/21/2013

The Anti-Defamation League issued its list of the Top 10 most influential and active anti-Israel groups in the United States on Monday.

The ADL listed ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism), American Muslims for Palestine, CODEPINK, Friends of Sabeel-North America, If Americans Knew/Council for the National Interest, Jewish Voice for Peace, Muslim Public Affairs Council, Natorei Karta, Students for Justice in Palestine and the US Campaign to End the Israeli Occupation as the top ten anti-Israel groups.

Each of the selected groups, according to the ADL, is “fixated with delegitimizing Israel” and has demonstrated the ability to reach new segments of the American public with a hostile and misleading narrative about Israel.

"The Top 10 anti-Israel groups are the most significant players in the domestic anti-Israel movement today,” said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director. “The groups are fixated on delegitimizing Israel and convincing the American public that Israel is an international villain that deserves to be ostracized and isolated.”

I mean they're pretty much what the Zionist loonies think all anti-Zionists are; these guys (all guys) oppose Israel not for any reasons grounded in ethics or morality, but because it was founded by Jews. Their vision of Judaism holds, basically, Israel is blasphemy precisely because it was founded by Jews, rather than the hand of god directly coming down and re-delivering it. Their whole thing is this bizarre belief that Jews should hold back and wait for god to provide, and to do otherwise is the worst of heresies. There's also their extremely bass-ackwards social beliefs.

Granted, they're not as bad as some claim (a poster here likes to claim they're holocaust deniers, but they're definitely not) but they're still pretty whacked. And the problem is, it's not like they wear neon signs proclaiming sect affiliation, so when they show up, peple are just like "oh hey, we've got these orthodox rabbi guys with us, give 'em a round of applause!"
