This article is horrible and is simply a mouthpiece for Christopher Hitchens to display his desire for there no longer to be a Jewish homeland. His theory of there being three groups of Jews is pathetic. As a Canadian Jew where do I stand? And why are American Jews there own group, yet somehow Argentinian Jews and British Jews the same group? Hitchens, you idiot, there are Israeli Jews and Diapora Jews! And btw, that group of Jews which is vulnerable to rocket attacks is also the first group of Jews in two thousand to have their own army, their own universities, their own government, etc. So YES, Zionism has made Jews safer.

Slate, please stop publishing these awful articles meant to for Hitchens to express his Jew hatred.

There is no God, so there is no gift of Palestine to ethnic snobs.

Get a grip. Assimilate, like the Zoroastrians did.

So your alternative is censorship?

I agree that Jews should have a homeland. Do you support the right of European derived people (ie WHITE people) to also have a homeland? Or is it "closed borders for us" and "open borders for you"? Please let us know
