Toronto-based anti-Zionist activist Suzanne Weiss on the "Jewish
lobby" theory ...

"We often say, "Anti-Zionism is not anti-Semitic." But there's a form
of anti-Zionism today supported by some on the Left that opens the
door to anti-Semitism. This is the argument that Zionists control U.S.
foreign policy. ...

"What is this but a cleaned-up version of the notorious anti-Semitic
theory of a world Jewish conspiracy? This conspiracy theory leaves the
U.S. capitalist class and the profit system off the hook as the root
cause of the ruinous conditions imposed on working people worldwide.
And it encourages reactionary U.S. nationalism and hatred of Jews."
