Talk about chutzpah: Dershowitz almost gets hoisted; but will he still demand a new Sand-Nazi state carved out of Israel?

A salient passage in Alan Dershowitz's book "Chutzpah" tells of his intermittent disillusionment with the left while at Harvard Law:

He and other Harvard law students had done some pro-bono work for "noted" Black Panther Angela Davis and other antiwar activists who had been arrested at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in 1968.

When Davis was later leaving for a trip to Moscow, Dershowitz asked her to intercede for Russian Jews in the Soviet Union who were being persecuted for everything from lighting Chanukah candles to attempting to emigrate and make aliyah to Israel.

Davis turned him down, stating that she would do nothing to help "Zionist imperialists," no matter where they stood on other issues...

Well, Perfessor, those pro-Arafat fascists you met at Faneuil Hall last week (see below) SUPPORT THE SAME INSANE DOO-DOO THAT YOU DO; creating another unneeded, combo Socialist / Sharia-based state fully capable of exporting more global terrorism.

What a shandah fur deh Yidden: Prof. Dershowitz only just found out how ruthless the leftists really are. How many more times does he need to get mugged by them, more important, how many more innocents must die at the hands of those emboldened by his over-zealous and impolite cohorts before he realizes that his goal for carving Terrorstine out of Israel's bosom is BAD FOR ISRAEL AND AMERICA?

Originally posted as and excerpted from Bigotry outside Faneuil Hall: Prof. Alan Dershowitz , March 5, 2004.

The other day, I experienced violent anti-Semitism for the first time in my adult life. It took place in front of Faneuil Hall, the birthplace of American independence and liberty.

(Wow, violent anti-semitism: good thing they were only screaming and waving signs at you, Professor)

I was receiving a justice award from the Jewish Council on Public Affairs and delivering a talk on "Civil Liberties in the Age of Terrorism" from the podium of that historic hall. When I left, award in hand, I was accosted by a group of screaming, angry young men and women carrying virulently anti-Israel signs. The protest was denominated a peace event and was sponsored by a group calling themselves by the vague name ACT-MA [link to their Israel message board via LGF & JP - Editor ]....

Although the signs they were carrying were not anti-Semitic, [what a relief - Editor ] the sign carriers were shouting epithets at me that crossed the line from civility to bigotry. "Dershowitz and Hitler, just the same, the only difference is the name." The sin that, in the opinion of the screamers, warranted this comparison between me and the man who murdered dozens of my family members was my support for Israel. It was irrelevant to these chanters that I also support a Palestinian state, the end of the Israeli occupation and the dismantling of most of the settlements. They also shouted "Dershowitz and Gibbels [sic], just the same, the only difference is the name" - not even knowing how to pronounce the name of the anti-Semitic Nazi propagandist.

One sign carrier shouted that Jews who support Israel are worse than Nazis. Another demanded that I be tortured and killed. It wasn't only their words; it was the hatred in their eyes. If a dozen Boston police were not protecting me, I have little doubt I would have been physically attacked. Their eyes were ablaze with fanatical zeal.

It was irrelevant to these chanters that I also support a Palestinian state, the end of the Israeli occupation and the dismantling of most of the settlements.

Welcome to and thank you for exposing the merger of the insane AND MODERATE left and islamo-fascism, Professor. Aside from you and these fools both completely missing the irony of your and their shared desire to make Yesha Judenrein, it's time to finish your education and see how John Kerry's wife's Tides Foundation is funding your Osama wannabe's as well as the self-loathing "moderate" left-wing Jewicides of Gush Shalom.
