Dershowitz also commented on what he perceives as “an increase of anti-Zionism, bordering on anti-semitism??an increase in everything anti-Israel...
...here is not to preach but to insist upon my right, and others’, to a conversation full of respect and free of intimidation, one that presumes no monopolies on suffering, one in which all racism and anti-Semitism??whether against Semitic Jews, Semitic Christians, Semitic Druzes or Semitic Muslims—is equally impermissible.

For one second, I thought that maybe a system like this, that eliminates destructive social conflict, was the answer. So did Karl and Fidel win me over? Not exactly. As enticing as I found some aspects of the Cuban regime, I soon...
