  2. In the same way, I can call Putin, Putinism, and the Russian government evil, but that does not impugn Russians, the Russian Orthodox Church, or Orthodox Christians generally - many of whom oppose Putinism.

  3. It is a mistake to equate anti-zionism to anti-semitism. Or to equate zionism, (or even Israel), to Judaism. I think Rasoul would be better served focusing on Netanyahu, Likud and US and Israeli nationalists rather than 'zionism' but his comments are not antisemitic.

  5. If the Democrats were as feckless and corrupt as described I imagine Trump would have taken over their party. But he took over the GOP. If you want to see something feckless and corrupt, just follow the careers of most 2015-era centrist Republicans.
