How much dishonesty can you pack into one column?
The Washington Post has a piece in its On Faith section by someone named Starhawk (seriously), on why she is not welcome in Israel.At paragraph nine, the reason creeps out.
The reason I was given was that my past work with the International Solidarity Movement, a group that supports Palestinian nonviolence. The ISM brings internationals to support demonstrations and civil resistance, for their presence adds a slim margin of safety that makes this method of protest possible. Founded by Palestinians, Israelis and Americans, it is one of many groups that has helped nurture a nonviolent movement that daily grows stronger in spite of its near invisibility in the media and on the international scene.
And the KKK is a group of dispassionate scholars with doubts about affirmative action. The ISM’s track record of protecting and promoting terrorists is pretty well known, and the Post should be ashamed of passing off Starhawk’s lies.
