gaarders  statement

In relation with the current events in the Middle East, Jostein Gaarder, a norwegian writer, came out with a statement no flag that many had reaction to. He opens fire against the Israeli goverment and rule. He directs critics against the way the slaughter is managed. Bottom line, he speeks his mind.

But still, there are many objections towards his statement. Gaarder has even been threatened for life! Freedom of speech is a good thing, right?

jews against jews

Came across an image that clearly states that it isn't just jewes that supports Israel, it's jews that are against Israel!

And to make a point, some John Doe commented Gaarders statement with: "How can it be that criticism of the state of Israel is anti-semitism? When I critize african politics like in Zimbabwe, does that mean that I am a nigger hater?".
