I am not a big fan of Lerner, but his statement below is perfectly reasonable. There is plenty of antisemitism in the U.S. political left, and knee jerk reactions against any use of the term are a real problem.
I agree, but so are knee-jerk invocations of the term. One can advocate divestment from Israel without being an anti-Semite. If you’re going to make the charge, offer some evidence.
