Letter to the New York Times

Abraham Foxman’s style may be melodramatic, as James Traub suggests, but he is certainly not exaggerating the resurgence of anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist incidents across the globe. It seems reasonable that Foxman, a Holocaust survivor, has legitimate grounds on which to be alarmed when a prominent member state of the United Nations, Iran, holds a conference promoting denial of the Holocaust and Iran’s president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, speaks openly about destroying the state of Israel.
