    Just go to @GiladAtzmon (twitter) or http://www.GiladAtzmon.wordpress.com/ to read the post. It’s worth the bit of time.

    Maybe this is too controversial for us to even KNOW what the controversy is! Again, the link does not work.

    Thanks for providing link- I am computer illiterate. A lot of people refuse to publicly come out in support of Atzmon because they could lose their jobs, etc., but there are still enough such as Alison Weir who takes a public stand.

    Well, rather than click on a link, it’s easier to just type in:
    http://www.giladatzmon.wordpress.com/
    and read it.
    It’s on the front page with
    “5 Broken Cameras”/
    I opened it again, just now…

    I just clicked on Alison Weir in the title & it took me straight to the article, which by the way this Atzmon attack confuses me.
    Are they saying Atzmon is an anti-semite & caution urges them to distance themselves?
    Is simply being pro Palestinian ample enough grounds for one to be considered anti semitic, like GWBush employed in his “your either with us or your with terrorists’, which makes you a terrorist in the eyes of the legal system

    I’d ask two questions: on balance is Mr. Atzmon an asset or liability and who benefits from deterring Mr. Atzmon’s activism?
    I really hope Mr. Abunimah hasn’t been corrupted.

    “Is being pro-Palestinian enough to be called anti-Semite”? Yes, it is.
    And, no, it does not matter that Gilad was born and raised in Israhell, it does not matter that Gilad was thinking he would join the IOF, for all of his younger years, or that his father had served.
    When Gilad realized how wrong his awful little country was and is, they decided he was a, “self hating Jew”. When Gilad decided he was no longer a Jew or could no longer go with Judaism as it was being taught in Israhell, they began calling him, “anti-Semite”.
    But, always bear in mind the video clip from Ex-Israeli (woman) regarding that inane term, “Ant-Semite: “It’s a trick. We use it ALL the time.”

    I love Gilad Atzmon. He’s a talented musician and an even more talented speaker. He’s spent more than half of his life as an activist against Zionsim (and even Judaism, at least what Judaism has become, thanks to Zionists.) I especially loved how he took on (and massacred, in words) that pig, Douche-uh-wictz, one of the worse, “American” Zionists on this planet.

    He does warn us to not listen to what he calls the, “Anti Zionist Zionists”, or those who would apologse for much of what Jews do… certainly all that Zionists do. You should look up Gilad’s good friend, Ken O’Keefe, too, for more on what Gilad is saying, as ken has been the subject of attacks by these very Anti-Zionist-Zionists, too.

    But, yes; the article was quite easily found.
    I subscrbe to Gilad Atzmon and have for years, so it’s always easy for me; he sends me his schedule and articles daily, too. I’d recommend anyone who likes what they see here to also sub Gilad.

    Thanks to persionples & Anne for posting a good link for this all too important Article. I suspect foul play in disabling it. Figures, due to the massive support Gilad has around the world. Not only among Gentiles but Jews as well who are taking a good look in the mirror. The falsifications and smear tactics are only galvanizing an already solid base of growing supporters with no sign of letup. This is really good news even with the inane attacks on him as well as his high profile supporters, such as Allison Wier & Cynthia McKinney who both know how to deflect such mean spirited and often brutal smears on their personal & professional beings. This is to be expected as the true nature of the racist supremacist Jew is revealed for the entire planet to see. Grotesque and vile barely begins to describe it. What we all need to be now more than ever is tenacious. Do not allow the predictable smear campaigns and infiltrations from ‘their’ Sayanim to drive a wedge into our circles, for this is already occurring within the Pro Palestine ranks as indicated in the Article. If Ali Abunimah were really thinking on his feet, he would apologise for his giant misstep and make a mea culpa publicly. But we cannot hold our collective breath for such a gesture. He obviously has been co-opted. So his words of condemnation of Gilad should be disavowed and simply tossed aside. I do hope he will one day see how that has only hurt HIM and not Gilad, in the process.
