Appealing Text Of The Week

"We hope that Governor Palin will recognize, when it is brought to her attention, that the term 'blood libel' brings back painful echoes of a very dark time in our communal history when Jews were falsely accused of committing heinous deeds. When Governor Palin learns that many Jews are pained by and take offense at the use of the term, we are sure that she will choose to retract her comment, apologize and make a less inflammatory choice of words."
-Jeremy Ben-Ami, President of pro-Israel group "J Street" on Sarah Palin's use of the term "blood libel" to describe her liberal critics
