Obviously one of the major questions in a site such as this is the charge of anti-Semitism for any criticism of Israel or, in particular, the Likud. However, these links show that the issue is not a Jewish and non-Jewish one, indeed most of the criticism of Israeli policies come from Jews. George Soros summed up many attitudes when he declared that Sharon and Bush were responsible for new and growing anti-Semitism in Europe and much of the world.
