Untitled[edit]

Have removed line "he is prominent within the Jewish community" as Antony simply is not. Although his views have received criticism within the Australian Jewish News and newsletters of various other organisations, it would be wrong to assume any fame or notoriety extends beyond a small, interested group. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.84.50.52 (talk • contribs)

I tagged this after reading an angry op-ed by Lowenstein that was filled with bad facts and half-truths, I looked him up. This appears to be largely a piece of self-promotion. He writes for places like "Green Left Weekly" and "Palestine Chronicle" but also gets op-eds into "The Australian" and "The Age." I will attempt to imrove the article a litte. Perhaps there is an Australian out there who can tell us if this guy is notable? Morningside Clio (talk) 16:48, 2 April 2008 (UTC)Monringside Clio[reply]

I've partway through reading My Israel Question, and I've read nothing which suggests Loewenstein is an athiest. It might be a politically contentious point in light of his criticism in the Jewish press, and probably needs a citation. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.228.182.106 (talk) 06:05, 25 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

There was an article about Lowenstein and IAJV in a recent issue of New Internationalist, a global magazine with paid circulation of 75,000. I think there was also an article in Jewish Socialist, the magazine of the Jewish Socialists' Group in Britain.
Morningside Clio also neglects to mention that Loewenstein is a columnist at ZNet [1] and the Australian Broadcasting Corporation website[2] and has contributed to Haaretz[3] and The Nation[4]. Hardly fringe publications.
Morningside Clio's assertion that Loewenstein is obscure is without foundation in fact. — Malik Shabazz (talk · contribs) 17:54, 4 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lowenstein's statements about the NZ Prime Minister are a direct quote from his web site @ http://antonyloewenstein.com/2011/02/03/new-zealand-pm-says-foreign-policy-dictated-by-keeping-israel-happy/ . — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alakum (talk • contribs) 04:45, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, and where is a reliable source that describes it as a controversy? — Malik Shabazz ^Talk/_Stalk 04:53, 5 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
