1. "VANDALS SMASH ... " MISSLEADING TITLE
m ,   Toronto   (04.25.08)
Vandals do not smash Holocaust and Jewish symbols, it's ANTISEMITES who do this. When vandals are involved in vandalism it's for the sake of destruction per se. When ANTISEMITES do this is an aggression against Jews.

Unless the vandalism was perpetrated by an irrational and misguided Jew. Think before you use the word 'anti-semitism', saturate the market and no-one'll buy the product anymore...
3. #1 It's not Anti-Semitism
(04.25.08)
It's criticism of Israeli policies. Whoever did this is either a critic or a peace activist.

"It's criticism of Israeli policies" ..? http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/myths/mf1.html#m "As writer Leon Wieseltier observed, “the notion that all Jews are responsible for whatever any Jews do is not a Zionist notion. It is an anti-Semitic notion.” Wieseltier adds that attacks on Jews in Europe have nothing whatsoever to do with Israel. To blame Jews for anti-Semitism is similar to saying blacks are responsible for racism."

... or learning English for that matter. It says that the items destroyed by the vandals were Nazi-related items such as: "Hitler-era anti-Semitic propaganda such as disparaging caricatures of Jews, newspaper pages, and other artifacts". It seems to me that the ones who destroyed these items were more likely anti-Nazi, as any jew with a sane mind is supposed to be. Perhaps among these vandals we might find a disgusted jew, and if that is the case, I can understand. But I don't endorse it. He's still a vandal. "There is a limit to wisdom, but to stupidity there isn't..."
