Eastern churches simply often try to please Muslims. Why doesn't the New York Times report this?
Manfred GerstenfeldMost extreme acts of anti-Semitism go beyond the acts of anti-Semitism by native Europeans.
Manfred GerstenfeldWe have to separate here the church in its broad sense. We have Catholics, Protestants, Eastern Orthodox churches. The Catholic church is a corporation like a chief executive. A fairly homogenous operation. Today its attitude toward anti-Semitism is much more severe than it's ever been. The Catholic Church today is much less the problem than the other groups.
Manfred GerstenfeldThe NGOs in Israel should devote more time to monitoring religious anti-Israel groups, chief among them the so-called "Christian Palestinianists."
Manfred GerstenfeldAnother touchy point: the inability of successive Israeli governments to deal with the propaganda war. Israel has a brilliant instrument in the IDF. We have a cyber-war unit which may become the best unit in the world to fight cyber problems. On the propaganda war...it is a large failure.
