Larry Cohler-Esses – Editor At Large Representatives for a powerful roster of academics and writers this week rejected the Anti-Defamation League’s invitation to meet and discuss their charge that the ADL applied pressure to shut down a prominent critic of Israel’s New York lecture. Professors Mark Lilla and Richard Sennett, organizers of a protest letter to ADL signed by 113 intellectuals, rejected ADL’s denial that it had not, in fact, threatened or pressured the Polish Consulate to deny a platform to New York University historian Tony Judt.

Blogger Thoughts: The ADL is a great organization to watch. I don’t pretend to provide the needed background in this post, but I submit that the ADL’s behavior is rarely consistent with promoting the general welfare of the Peoples of the Earth.
