Rebecca – the title indicates that the article is making a argument for why Jews should support divestment from a Jewish perspective, not implying that all Jews support divestment. The purpose of the article is to convince Jews to support divestment, so clearly the author does not believe all Jews already support it.

I agree that there are a plethora of opinions among Jews, and that no single Jew’s opinion should be taken as the opinion of the community. For example, the claim that divestment is inherently anti-Semitic is just one Jew’s opinion. It does not represent countless other Jews who support divest and oppose Zionism (myself included).
