MYSTERY JEW DEFENDED, JEWISH HOMELAND NOT SO MUCH

Independent Australian Jewish Voices blogger Michael Brull passionately supports mystery-man Edward Einfeld:

There has long been enormous media coverage of the Edward Einfeld case, gleeful reporting of his lying, and self-righteous proclamations of the need for him to suffer for his crime and so on. I find the desire to see him publically lynched and humiliated quite repugnant.

According to Brull, Jews everywhere should support Edward Einfeld – whoever he is – despite his shortcomings. You know, like Jews everywhere should support Israel, despite its shortcomings.

Update: A reader emails:

Brull is an idiot, and I'm not sure you fully made the point.

I thought it was obvious.
