ECONOMIST MAG. SUPPORTS BOYCOTT; ASSAILS JEWS

Naive Academic boycotters vs. Ruthless opponents by Judith A. Klinghoffer (Political Mavens)
No, you'd not guess it from the headline. Actually, I was pleasantly surprised by it. I got used to the Economist reflexive anti Israel, often anti-Semitic stance. But here it was. "Slamming Israel, giving Palestinians a free pass: A strangely one-sided boycott in Britain stirs global rage." Seems balanced, doesn't it?! "Slamming" vs. "rage." But read on: the text is nothing of the sort. Instead, the text reinforces the stereotype of thin skinned, aggressive Jews overreacting to politically naive genteel idealists' well meaning efforts to aid hapless Palestinian victims.
