Awesome: I've been blocked by Steve Salaita UPDATED

I am sure that many of you remember Steven Salaita, the professor whose offer of a tenured position at the University of Illinois was withdrawn after the trustees discovered his Jew-hatred. The University was eventually censured by the American Association of University Professors, and Salaita landed at the American University in Beirut.

Earlier today, Salaita tweeted this (which I can no longer see, but if someone wants to send me a screen cap, I'll add it to this post without disclosing who you are),

and I responded with this:

Another anti-Semitic moron speaks up. So glad there's free speech in Lebanon. https://t.co/3hmE2NpQEN

Gee, I was such a naughty boy today.

Those liberal academics are just so open to criticism.

Now, if only I knew why Jeffrey Goldberg blocked me. Took me over a year to notice.

So his self-loathing is not as transparent as say the J Street types, but he's cut from the same cloth at the end of the day. Goldberg has praised at least one anti-Semitic book on Israel I have come across, his burb on the cover. I would give the title but I cannot recall it offhand. His whitewashing of the jihadist Jew-hatred of the PA and Palestinian society is what you would expect from a MSM hack likewise. And is part and parcel of Jewish self-loathing and blind ignorance.

Name: Carl in Jerusalem

Location: Jerusalem, Israel

I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
