"In order to build powerful movements we must take on antisemitism as what it is: a divide-and-rule strategy that has served to maintain ruling classes, conceal who actually has power, and confuse us about the real systems of oppression that pit us against one another.
We on the Left have a responsibility and an opportunity to sharpen our collective liberation vision and analysis through studying and challenging antisemitism. Rosenblum's pamphlet needs to be studied and the lessons applied."

David Hirsh: "If you demonise Israel, Israelis and Jews that think Israel has the right to exist, then you will build a movement that is comfortable for antisemites; you set yourself up for a fight with Jews. If you fail to educate people in that movement about antisemitism, then do not be surprised if you end up with a movement that does not know how to recognise antisemitism."

Anti-Semitism is used here to mean the historic and ongoing attacks against and prejudice towards Jews. As Progressives, we also acknowledge with concern that Arabs are also targeted by attacks and bigotry.
