anti-Semitic<\/a>\u00a0<\/strong><\/span>speech; Consul Dani Dayan tweeted that Hill\u2019s remarks were like a \u201cswastika painted in red,\u201d the Anti-Defamation League said they were tantamount to calling for Israel to be wiped off the map. The inevitable outcome was not long in coming and CNN fired the rebel analyst on the very same day.<\/span><\/p>\nHow dare he? What was he thinking? Where did he think he\u2019s living, in a democracy with free speech or a country where dialogue about Israel is under the serious censorship of the Jewish establishment and Israeli propaganda? Hill tried to claim that he\u2019s opposed to racism and anti-Semitism and his remarks were intended to support the establishment of a binational, secular and democratic state. But he didn\u2019t stand a chance.<\/span><\/p>\nIn the heavy-handed reality that has seized control over dialogue in the United States, there\u2019s no room for expressions that may offend the Israeli occupation. On a liberal day it\u2019s permissible to say \u201ctwo states\u201d as long as you do it in a whisper.<\/span><\/p>\nWhat would have happened if Hill had called for the establishment of a Jewish state between the Jordan and the sea? He would have safely continued holding down his job. Rick Santorum, the former senator, said in 2012 that \u201cno Palestinian\u201d lives in the . Nobody thought of firing him. Even Hill\u2019s critic, Shapiro, has called in the past for ethnic cleansing of Palestinians in the territories (he backtracked on it a few years later) and nothing happened to him.<\/span><\/p>\nYou can attack the Palestinians in America uninterrupted, call to expel them and deny their existence. Only don\u2019t dare to touch Israel, the holy of holies, the country that exists above suspicion. And the height of chutzpah? Israel and the Jewish establishment keep on accusing the media, including CNN, of being slanderers of Israel. There\u2019s no worse joke than that. Try to publish a critical article about Israel in a mainstream newspaper in the West \u2013 it\u2019s getting more and more difficult, more often than not, impossible. But nothing will satisfy the lion\u2019s hunger: The more he complains, the stronger he gets.<\/span><\/p>\nThe key word of course is anti-Semitism. A lot has been written about the use Israel and its supporters make of anti-Semitism. And it works wondrously, it\u2019s a magic word that silences people. There has not yet been a single critique of occupation that isn\u2019t tagged as anti-Semitism. Everything is anti-Semitism: Hill is anti-Semitic because he favors a one-state solution, Roger Waters is an anti-Semite because that\u2019s how Gilad Erdan described him at a conference last week about propaganda in Germany, UNRWA is anti-Semitic, and of course, BDS. The whole world is against us.<\/span><\/p>\n
