"In the final analysis, such calls are themselves anti-Semitic, or at the very least, as in the case of Mr. Beinart, play into the hands of the anti-Semites."

Why It’s Conflation

Beinart proposed a different political arrangement: one state where everyone votes. People can think that’s a bad idea. The ADL said proposals like it are antisemitic, and that a Jewish writer making one helps antisemites.

What Actually Happened

Beinart: "It's time to explore other ways to achieve that goal—from confederation to a democratic binational state—that don't require subjugating another people. It's time to envision a Jewish home that is a Palestinian home, too."
