We can't ALL be antisemites, can we? http://www.rabble.ca/news/2010/05/we-cant-all-be-antisemites-can-we

The hysteria created around the inclusion of a group called Queers Against Israeli Apartheid (QuAIA) in the Toronto Pride Parade this year can be justly attributed to the ongoing Brand Israel campaign backed by Israel's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and most recently by Irwin Cotler's Canadian Parliamentary Coalition to Combat Antisemitism.

The CPCCA and the Israel lobby groups that surround it have taken the charge of antisemitism to new and exaggerated heights, inventing what has been termed: "the new antisemitism." Aside from the fact that it sounds like a new and better hair product, its roots can be located in the Brand Israel campaign launched by the Israeli government's Hasbara department, that is, the foreign ministry's public diplomacy department.
