What I register in your posting, Mr Pearlman, is the spirit of the
thought-enforcer.  What right have you to demand that I declare my reaction
to Charles Moyers' squib?  ('Are you now or have you have you ever
been....?')   What right have you to accuse others unknown to you of
'condoning' anti-semitism by 'collective silence'?  Remember, Pound held all
Jews guilty of usury because of  what he regarded as their collective
silence about it.   Please speak for yourself, and respect the right of
others to think and speak for themselves.   Hang on in there!
