Portrait of Self-Hatred

Here are some very telling words from Freda Guttman, an installation artist for Artists Against the Occupation, and member of the Jewish Alliance Against the Occupation and the International Solidarity Movement:

“I’m not a self-hating Jew; I just hate injustice. If people ask why we are not even-handed, the answer is the [conflict] is not evenhanded…While I don’t condone [suicide] bombing, the greater evil is Israel’s occupation.”

There you have it, in words. An ISM activist and self-hating Jew who believes murdering innocent men, women and children in cold blood is morally less reprehensible than being in occupation of lands captured in a war of self-defence.
