Dave Smith Fires Back After Dershowitz Calls Him An Antisemite
Dershowitz leveled the antisemite charge over Smith's dual-loyalty jab, during Nawfal's 90-minute debate posted September 2.
- Dershowitz called Smith, who is Jewish, an antisemite after his dual-loyalty remark.
- Smith rejected the label, saying criticism of Israel's lobby isn't proof of antisemitism.
- Dershowitz once served as defense attorney for Jeffrey Epstein, convicted of soliciting minors.
Why it matters: Calling a fellow Jew antisemitic for criticizing Israel policy empties the accusation of any real meaning.
