Anti-Zionism = Anti-Semitism Debate, Exhibit 3 billion

There is a larger conversation going on whether you can be Anti-Zionist without being Anti-Semitic. However, it must be understood that for many Anti-Zionists, the two are synonymous. To attack Israel, they attack Jews (cf. the Seattle shooting, Mel Gibson).

The most recent example is from a group of Turkish hackers who broke into the Yeshiva University website:

Hackers protesting the Israel-Lebanon war broke into Yeshiva University's Web site yesterday and changed the content to read "Lebanon-israel ... STOP!" with images of injured civilians.


And, in case you don't feel safe enough:

The hacker claimed to have downloaded sensitive information from the university, but said that he would not use it.
