anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitism

edit

They were notable for their anti-Semitic overtones: Slánský and 10 of his 13 co-defendants were Jewish.

I propose to change the word "anti-Semitic" to "anti-Zionist". They were not accused of being Jews, but they were accused of Zionist activities.

I propose it be reverted as Judt in "Postwar," among others, has convincingly laid out that the trials were indeed profoundly anti-Semitic. Many of the Zionist charges stemmed from the policies that were Stalinist policies prior to Israel leaning west. I think you are semantically correct in the charge but the original wording is correct in its meaning and I believe this is important in full understanding.--Miglewis (talk) 19:21, 21 April 2011 (UTC)Reply
