Disgrace and the Democratic Socialists of America
(Tablet) Paul Berman - The Socialist Party of America was sincerely opposed to superstitious and medieval bigotries of every kind. Therefore, it became the first American party truly to open its arms to the Jewish immigrant masses, circa 1900. The first two Jewish members of the U.S. Congress were Socialists - Meyer London from the Lower East Side and Victor Berger from Milwaukee. Today the members of Democratic Socialists of America chant "from the river to the sea/Palestine will be free," which is a murderous chant, directed at any Jews who remain within those borders.
