Having a family member as well as a friend who are active in a northern California chapter of the ADL, I can assure you, based on numerous conversations with them, and having attended a number of ADL sponsored speaking engagements, that the ADL under the directorship of Abe Foxman, has no intention whatsoever of condemning any right wing hate speech against the "left". Foxman, who rules the ADL with an iron fist is completely an "Israel right or wrong" person who wholly supports the ideology and positions of the Likud block, which in turn has very close and intimate ties to the US neocons and their allies in Fox and right wing media in the US. The fact that Foxman, in his latest response to glenn failed again to explain why the ADL wouldn't condemn the right wing comparisons of liberal bloggers to Hitler and Nazis is another indication that the ADL under Foxman engages in a double standard policy that clearly favors the right wing.
