Criticism
The Anti-Defamation League criticizes the grassroots leadership of some regional chapters who promote a hard-line stance, including rejecting Israel’s right to exist. These chapters have organized what ADL called “anti-Israel” rallies and, in California, worked with the Free Palestine Alliance, A.N.S.W.E.R. and Al-Awda (Palestinian right of return) activist groups which the Anti-Defamation League alleges support terrorism. David Bernstein and Gerald M. Steinberg have described ADC as "anti-Israel."

Famous quotes containing the word criticism:
“Like speaks to like only; labor to labor, philosophy to philosophy, criticism to criticism, poetry to poetry. Literature speaks how much still to the past, how little to the future, how much to the East, how little to the West.”
—Henry David Thoreau (18171862)
“I, with other Americans, have perhaps unduly resented the stream of criticism of American life ... more particularly have I resented the sneers at Main Street. For I have known that in the cottages that lay behind the street rested the strength of our national character.”
—Herbert Hoover (18741964)
“In criticism I will be bold, and as sternly, absolutely just with friend and foe. From this purpose nothing shall turn me.”
—Edgar Allan Poe (18091845)
