gvwire“Alison Weir has established herself as a prominent voice in the anti-Israel movement. … (who) employs anti-Semitic imagery,” says the Anti-Defamation League.
The website IsraelPalestineNews published an article detailing Weir’s response to the criticism. The website is operated by If Americans Knew, the nonprofit organization Weir founded.
The article refers to efforts aimed at canceling her Fresno area appearance as “a smear campaign peddled by ADL and other powerful orgs bent on silencing Alison Weir as she calls for justice for Palestinians.”
Weir asserts, “these organizations have attempted to dig up dirt on me and label me anti-Semitic. Their accusations are unfounded, as they know. I stand for justice and equality, and I condemn all types of racism, including anti-Semitism. I hope people who live in the Fresno-Clovis area will come to hear me for themselves and make their own decisions.”
