CBC, which did not bother to publish the Spanish actors' letter condemning Israel, sought fit to publish an article on Jon Voight's criticism of this letter.
Voight lashed out at Cruz and her husband Bardem in an open letter published this weekend, calling their comments "ignorant" and declaring that all signatories to the letter should "hang their heads in shame."
Voight's charge of anti-semitism is absurd. It does not deserve to be quoted or repeated. CBC should hang its head in shame.

"I am heartsick that people like Penelope Cruz and Javier Bardem could incite anti-Semitism all over the world and are oblivious to the damage they have caused."

But on the other hand, Zionism is an ideology, like all colonial ideologies, that is firmly based on the racist view that one group of people should have more rights than another - Jews should have more rights than Arabs.
