The Moral Bankruptcy of the Anti-Defamation League By David Starr On March 03, 2025 Anti-Defamation League (ADL) CEO Jonathan Greenblatt made a speech for the State of Hate / Never Is Now 2025 campaign. It was specifically a press release. In it, Greenblatt conjures up the same old stereotypes about how pro-Palestinian supporters are agents of Hamas, as well as terrorists. And he, like always with hardline Israeli supporters, whipped out the anti-Semitic card for practically any criticism made by people who oppose Israel’s attempted genocide and ethnic cleansing military campaigns. Greenblatt said that “after months of allowing the harassment, intimidation, and even violence against Jewish students and faculty, many university presidents, certainly not all, but many have discovered the virtues of actually enforcing their policies on encampments and harassment.” True, there is a reemergence of anti-Semitism but it’s not from Pale...

The Author

In 1986 while living in Hawai'i, I acknowledged my interests in political and social issues. I became active, joining such groups as the Latin American & Caribbean Solidarity Association (LACASA), Hawai'i Union of Socialists (HUS), and Ka Lehui Hawai'i (The Nation of Hawai'i). I also created "Voices of Change," a publication which came out during the 1990s, as well as getting published in the Honolulu Weekly and Toward Freedom. Now Connecticut-based, I've published articles and commentary in "Reader Supported News," "The Daily Kos" and have been published in the "LA Progressive" and "Covert Action Magazine."

StarrNarrative - Introduction

This blog is called "StarrNarrative" for the following reasons. 1) It's a play on words for my last name. 2) Narrative is another word for story, report and chronicle. As the sub head indicates, it's observations, commentary and news from a Left perspective. Since Left/Progressive sources hardly (if at all) get published in the corporate media, this blog is another source to bring out some inconvenient truths that are virtually absent from the media; truths which may be belittled or offend. It's to get the public exposed to alternative information, a necessary endeavor.
