Get a load of this. Note how deftly Will avoids addressing the actual issue at hand.
Read the whole page. You will see Chip Berlet as one of those Star Trekish creatures who feeds on strong emotion. In Berlet's case, he needs antisemitism and homophobia and neonazis like he needs oxygen.
Drama queens like this guy are amazing. They'll can find the hot button issue in any community, then go down and push it, then feed, feed, feed, on the back reaction. If it's the South and they're having problems with race, folks like Berlet will go down as freedom riders and see if they can integrate your schools, and bus your kids down to where they can get their lunch money stolen. Ah, the Southern Poverty Law Center, spreading good will. If somebody has homophobia and worries about their kids being turned onto "alternative lifestyles" (however unlikely this may be in fact), guys like Chip have a gay pride parade for you, just to get you outraged at however's behind it. Are you a Christian? There's the ACLU to be your Grinch. And if you worry about Jews controlling the media, there are folks like Chip and his friends controlling the media (as in this example on Wikipedia) to prove that you're wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.
Seems to me that more Jews should be totally outraged at this kind of friendly fire (in the David Horowitz style), which tends to actually
create antisemitism where it didn't even exist previously. But then, they'd be called self-hating Jews, would they not? Drama, drama, drama. And hatred. Stay off that ship, Captain Kirk! Refuse to fight with that Klingon and start laughing!
