Jews in America have to speak up.

For sure there are issues that have affected Walkers objectivity . Her first husband was Jewish and that ended in an acrimonious divorce . So all Jews are bad in Ms Walkers extreme universe and ipso facto , Israel becomes the personification of all things Evil . To get a better idea of the woman , just take a read of her daughters alienation from her mother .

Just Google the Daily Mail 2008 Interview with Rebecca walker and see what this Walker is really like ,pure evil. You can also Google Alice Walker's daughter Interview

according to wiki she was married to a Jew but divorced and then had a lesbian relationship. So that means she once liked Jews but now has moved on to not liking men altogether. So now she is appears to be dislike jews and men. Well cheer up Aice there is only half the world to go and then you can say you hate us all.

Will be attacked...Alice told nothing but TRUTHS and FACTS on the Ground.. All of you JEWS and haters of Alice....RISE to the LEVEL of Intelligence Fairness Real Jews are known for.. ..

actually my cat jumped onto the keyboard and hit the enter key before I had a chance to correct the text so it was Felix that actually sent this post. He obviously realized that Alice Walker doesn't like cats much either and had to put in his tuppence worth.

She clearly isn't an authorative figure in any sense of the word. And how will history remember her? Well I think she'll be forgotten pretty quicky. Just another BDS pygmy!

'I am going to read this book with an open mind''. Hilarious! Are you on the stand-up comedy circuit now you muppet? We already know you agree with this BDS freak from the numerous posts you've written to Ynet over the years not forgetting the ones you've just posted today! And you say ''Alice Walker is a courageous woman, who will not be silenced''. Now there's a clue! Its not as if you're going to change you’re mind that Israel is a 'racist', 'apartheid state', occupying palestinian land, are you? I don’t think any Ynet regulars are biting their nails, on tenterhooks wondering which way you’re going to swing!

Any group persecuted for over 2,000 years must deserve it. Reputations are earned.

enough to have committed the "greatest atrocity in the history of the world" but it is right up there given its small size. Calling her an anti-Semite does not have a sting any more since it has been cheapened so that any criticism of Israel equals anti Semitism. How can she be anti semitic if the Pals are a semitic people?

Ms Walker must have spent a considerable amount of time in Israel and observed what others may not see, to voice such a strong opinion about Israel. (She has a strange resemblance to Woppie Goldberg)

I can tell you most Americans don't think like this snake. Israel enjoys the support of the American people to the tune of 62% BH and should given that Israel is a shining light in a sea of darkness. It is truly sad a women whose family suffered through slavery turns around and herself becomes a bigot and anti-Semite. A majority will always blame a minority for there own problems and have the numbers to due so thats were the hatred comes from along with jealousy Alice Walker is no different a vile anti-Semite.

Everyday her own people get murdered all over africa for no reason. 95000 syrians get murdered over the past 2 years. Does she care??

sure as hell you must know a lot about it. It impossible for mentally competent individuals to hate more than a handful of people at any given time. The same with love. One also cannot hate people one does not know personally. Jews are not hated by rather disliked. Because the dislike is not something you can regulate against, there are two options left. First, accept it. Second, eliminate the reasons of the dislike. The former is easier, especially when coping mechanisms are implemented.

There is nothing antisemitic to wish that Israel becomes a democratic state, as opposed to a jewish state. There is nothing principally antisemetic in comparing people with Nazi's, not even if that person is an Israeli. The be an antisemite one has to be anti jew. And Israel and jews aren't synonyms, no matter how many times the propagandist of hate are trying to make believe they are.

going against the bible also means she goes against chritianity and islam, I wonder what she has to say about Eliau Hatishbi, also known as Elijah also known as Elias. he is sacrade to all. I guess she believe in the pagan gods of the sky.

You are not listening to those you defend. They HATE both Israel and Jews. In most cases they are the same as "Israel" has become the code name for "Jews". "Dislike" does not call for another's annihilatio or even de-legitimizing. And Israel and Jews ARE synonyms, no matter how many times propagandists of hate are trying to make believe they are not. Open your eyes and you won't show how little you know and how much you ignore.

Completely disproportionate racist attack on Israel (which is antisemitic/racist according to the European Union's own guidelines) needs to be prosecuted. Unfortunately, Racism seems to be a ''one way street'' in the US as well as the UK.....interesting how less inflamatory ''antisemitic'' outbursts by white males such as John Galliano & Mel Gibson (who were intoxicated at the time) were vigorously investigated & prosecuted by authorities while the appauling diatribe from Walker will be forgotten about because she is African-American and a woman...

Walker's disproportionate anti-Israel hatred is to some degree a by-product of the breakdown of her marriage to a jewish lawyer. There are numerous examples of jews marrying African-Americans in the US as a result of their mutual interest in the Civil Rights movement. Walker actually makes disparaging comments about her ex-husband's legal values in her book. A good friend of mine who lives in London is very friendly with a jewish London based lady in her mid 40's who is high up in the Jews for Justice for Palestinians & BDS movements. She disrupts visiting Israeli theatre productions & was physically involved in disruptions outside the AHAVA store in covent garden London and Soda Stream in Brighton. My friend is in no doubt that she is going through a mid-life crisis and is merely trying , through her actions, to strike back at her parents and jews in general for not being married, having any children etc.

...i live in the UK & according to recent EU guidelines, this disgustingly disproportionate diatribe from Walker IS RACIST because it goes far beyond anti-zionist discourse into classical anti-semitic hatred. Are the ADL going to initiate criminal proceedings against Alice Walker in the same way as they jumped on anti-semitic comments made by white males such as John Galliano & Mel Gibson who were actually drunk at the time. In addition to affirmative action in the US & UK which no doubt Walker has been a recipiant of, racism in these countries seem to be a one-way street ie. whites against blacks and other ethnic/religious people so don't hold your breath that this African American female will be prosecuted for her comments. As for being 'brave', people like Salman Rushdie author of the Satanic Verses or Moslem lesbians who speak out against Islamic extremism are BRAVE, not twisted individuals like Walker.

I leave in Germany and know that many here "dislike" Poles. When are you going to publish your plan for eliminating reasons for that? BTW many people beleive that Poles "dislike" everybody, i.e. Russians, Germans, Jews, Muslims etc. Based on this I would say ignore Polish "dislikes". Anyway Poland could never do much against Germans and Russians. What left to do? "Dislike" Jews and continue to HATE former oppressors?

Agree with everything was quoted and attributed to her ,... Every avalanche starts with a one snow flake. Agree with everything is quoted and atributed to her. Finally someone got the balls to say it loud. Fortunately in her case people vote with their wallets and don't ask JDL for advise ,...

This is the gratitude for helping blacks,from Julius Rosenwald,who founded the NACCP,to Michael Schwerner and Andrew Goodman,who were killed in the south, for helping blacks register to vote,this evil woman is prove,that no good did goes unpunished.

ADL get a job people a real job and earn a living the old fashioned way, stop mooching and get lost ,...

Unlike Israel they don't claim or pretend to be democracies ,...

Anyone here ever read "The Color Purple?" It purports to be semi-autobiographical. Her father was crawling into bed with her and her sister, fathering children .... no wonder she's sick and diseased. Did she father her son or her brother? Confusing. But it's not the fault of the Jews. But all that incest is probably why the ersatz "Palestinians" resonate so strongly with her. All those ersatz "Palestinian" girls married to their uncles and first cousins? No wonder Alice Walker is so drawn to depraved existences. She's led one herself! She was married to a Jewish lawyer for a while, and then he kicked her to the curb. Dumped her. That explains a great deal, too. She's a narcissistic sociopath. That's all she is. The Pulitzer Prize is not in the least bit impressive. If Hussein Obama can win the Nobel Peace Prize, anyone can win anything.
