The New York Times really unleashed a doozy by publishing a column originally titled, “Attacks on Jews Over Israel Are a Gift to the Right.” The Gray Lady has since modified the headline, at least online, but it actually captured the gist of columnist Michelle Goldberg’s piece rather well. By this telling, even when conservatives are lamenting unprovoked assaults against the innocent, it is the conservatives who somehow are the bad guys.

Truth be told, Goldberg doesn’t make much of a point other than equating right-wing Zionists and antisemitic anti-Zionists by saying both groups conflate “the Jewish people with the Israeli state.”
