"It's not unique to the Jewish community - but there is a McCarthy-ite tendency among some people in the Jewish community. They operate not by arguing but by slandering, vilifying, demonizing. They very promptly wheel out anti-Semitism. There is an element of paranoia in this inclination to view any serious attempt at a compromised peace as somehow directed against Israel," - Zbigniew Brzezinski, a former U.S. national security adviser under President Jimmy Carter.
