SPOTLIGHT ON THE EXTREMISTS ...Israeli radical Adam Keller, writing in the Jewish leftwing newsletter PS, outlines the arguments in favor of expelling all Jews from Hebron, including this novel point: "Among the present Hebron settlers there is not a single person descended from the old families of the original Hebron Jewish community." No word on whether Keller, a resident of Holon, is descended from those who lived in Holon during the 1920s... ..."Anyone who attempts to speak or write on the racism inherent in the Talmud risks the charge of anti-Semitism," complains Israel-basher Grace Halsell in a recent issue of the Washington Report on Middle East Affairs.

But according to the Forward, some of the individuals who have been advertised as speakers don't know anything about it.
