Real anti-semitism is a serious and growing problem, and there is a need for political consensus about how to tackle it.

An inquiry that wants to confront anti-semitism should also confront those who cheapen the term through reckless misuse.I doubt the likes of Charles Johnson and Pamela Gellar Oshry would even begin to understand what he's saying.
