Whoever removed the link to the Kahanist book site did the right thing. Whatever nuttiness the JDO may represent it is not a Kahanist organization and indeed is bitterly attacked by the Kahanists on various web sites. The link to mail order Kahanists books belongs in the articles on Kahane and his various organizations, not here.--Dec. 28, 2005

Someone keeps inserting a tirade against M. Levy at the end of this article. Most of what it says is already in the article, but in the insert it is given a strong POV slant. The same person who inserted this stuff also deleted two sentences about Lenora Fulani and Fred Newman's cult, which the JDO opposes, so it's not too difficult to guess that the tirade comes from a certain Newman internet operative who used to be active with Newman fronts such as "Jews for Farrakhan" and "Jews for Sharpton." The accusation in this insert that Levy was working for rather than against Lyndon LaRouche (Fred Newman's mentor) is slanderous and without foundation. And it's curious how the author of the insert attacks Levy for criticizing the ADL's Abe Foxman, even though the Newman organization itself has long excoriated the ADL for being Zionist "gangsters". The insert author even goes out of his way to make the late Irv Rubin and the Kahanist Jewish Defense League look like innocent victims of Levy. What opportunism!--3 April 2006

Can this be cleaned up? There needs to be a citation here, "The JDO itself, however, is sympathetic to the settlers movement and believes that the peace formula is a snare and a delusion that can only lead to the destruction of the Jewish state (views that are shared by most of the Right in Israel)." The parenthesized may be true, however, it is not common knowledge. Perhaps something like "may ultimately prove perilous" rather than "snare and delusion" and "destruction of the Jewish State." Also, it would be nice to mention something about the actual content produced by the group. It would be hard to glean from this article that this group uses terminology such as "Terrorist Jew-hater" or "Jew-hating Terrorist", frequently on its website. I think this group is on the fringe, and that doesn't seem to be very clear from this articledb 04:40, 4 January 2007 (UTC)

They were apparently part of the whole hype around the anthrax/hatfill thing, and not a whole lot of facts on their web page, pretty much hate spewing.

I notice they also put the address and phone number of anti-semitic Professor they have decided was deserving of harassment there now. Nice place. Thanks for supporting their point of view.

Mordechai Levy

 * This section looks to be actually longer than the Mordechai Levy article. I propose that a lot of this section be moved to that article. --Leatherstocking (talk) 02:31, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

Perennial IP vandalism of this page
This page, along with the Mordechai Levy page, has been being vandalized for close to a year by an IP in the range of 216.194. The most recent addy is 216.194.60.219. Looking at this edit and this edit, this edit, for instance, it seems obvious that this IP belongs to someone trying to promote this organization. Boodlesthecat Meow? 14:31, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

Correct Jabotinsky quote?
This is tangential to the JDO page but I notice Jabotinsky is quoted here as having said " "Better to know how to shoot and not need to, than to need to and not know how." but on the article about Jabotinsky himself the slogan is stated as "better to have a gun and not need it than to need it and not have it!"

See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ze%27ev_Jabotinsky#Zionist_activism_in_Russia

Does anyone know which version is correct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Luzzy fogic (talk • contribs) 10:41, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
