#2 well i bet Michael Lerner is happy at any rate. I would have called him "lukewarm, fuzzy minded, barely zionist american jew"

#3 and i bet jerome segal (close to Lerner) Eric Yoffie (i think they got the spelling wrong, head of the Reform Central Conference of American Rabbis) and Michael Walzer (very sensible social democrat intellectual and old time labor zionist, close with Israeli labor party big wigs) would be rather shocked that theyre NOT considered Zionists, at least moderate ones - how'd they leave the whole category to a schlemiel like Lerner? I protest.

#5 and they call dore gold a hardliner, but not Jabotinsky?

Even more hilarious, they have a category for German American Jews. What, have they been reading "Our crowd"? Are they trying to make sure only the "right people" are invited to their social club? as an eastern european American Jew, I must protest this outdated snobbery. The American Jewish community is almost past it thank G-d - i dont want it revived in the antisemite community.

#6 I demand that they label me Jewish, as well! The fact that I'm not is immaterial - I want to be like the Danes in WWII when the Nazis said Jews had to wear yellow stars and everybody in Denmark - starting with the King - wore one.

So come on, Cork students - label me a Jew as well. My grandmother was part Scottish, so I'll qualify as a twofer for you.

Losers.

#7 I read somewhere (possibly via this website) how Irish Nationalists (IRA) had adopted the PLO Cause as their own while the Irish Loyalists (Protestants/UDA/UVF) had coopted the besieged Israelis.

In my case, as an American of Irish Catholic descent, I'll wear the Star! Terrorism Delenda Est!

#8 I would be an unlikely Jew, but will wear that label proudly, too. In fact, I believe that Israel has right to exist as a homeland for Jews, a Zionist, therefore, I am.
