HAARETZ READERSHIP SEEM TO OPPOSE ARKUSH AND SUPPORT LIVINGSTON

Jonathan Arkush is President of the Board of Deputies of British Jews. He is quoted by Haaretz as saying,

"What Ken Livingstone deliberately did was to draw an equation between Nazism and Zionism. He therefore crossed a line into what certainly most people would regard as distinctly anti-Semitic...It was much more than offensive language, Ken Livingstone actually said Hitler was some sort of Zionist,"

The readers' comments on this article are overwhelmingly in support of Livingston.

A typical reply is this from 'Jan':

although I am not a fan of him, needs a bit of defense here. He never said that Hitler was a zionist. He simply said that the zionist movement in Germany signed an agreement with the Hitler government, which is patently true. We all know why Hitler did this, it was not because he loved Jews. But what is happening at this moment is hysteria because of interpretations of what people think Livingstone meant and not about what he really said. I am actually quite disgusted by this onslaught.

And it was all kicked off by that disckhead Zionist John Mann MP accusing Livingston of rewriting history!!

Mann should be history.
