LA Times (1993): New Details of Extensive ADL Spy Operation Emerge : Inquiry: Transcripts reveal nearly 40 years of espionage by a man who infiltrated political groups.
To the outside world, Roy Bullock was a small-time art dealer who operated from his house in the Castro District. In reality, he was an undercover spy who picked through garbage and amassed secret files for the Anti-Defamation League for nearly 40 years. He was so successful at infiltrating political groups that he was once chosen to head an Arab-American delegation that visited Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-San Francisco) in her Washington, D.C., office. On one occasion, [Los Angeles-based operative David] Gurvitz recounts, he received a tip that a pro-Palestinian activist was about to board a plane bound for Haifa, Israel. Although the Anti-Defamation League publicly denies any ties to Israel, Gurvitz phoned an Israeli consular official to warn him. Shortly afterward, another official called Gurvitz back and debriefed him. NY Times (1993): Anti-Defamation League Accused of Spying A lawsuit filed this week charges that the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith deviated from its civil rights work by conspiring with police agencies to spy, harass and intimidate several political groups. The suit also accuses the law-enforcement agencies of illegally collecting and distributing information about the political activities and personal lives of members of the 12 organizations in the suit. The suit charges that the A.D.L. maintains a "wide-ranging network of unlawful surveillance," directed at Arab-Americans and other supporters of Palestinian rights, opponents of South African apartheid and critics of United States policy in Central America, among others. A similar suit was filed in April in San Francisco Superior Court by 19 Arab-Americans and others who said the A.D.L. had spied on them. |
Religion is absolutely not necessary to live a full and enriched life filled with good deeds. |
This is true now in 2025 but when religions were created thousands of years ago, they were needed to police society. Religion has served a valuable purpose in human history even if they no longer do. |
Opiate of the masses |
very underrated band |
| Every interest group in Washington “monitors” politicians. |
| Make sure to note anyone who says "America first" because that's antisemitic rhetoric according to the ADL. |
Exactly. This is why this is a nothing-burger. If you don't like interest groups and the influence of money in politics, stop supporting GOP and Dem politicians!!!!!! Every vote they receive is another stamp of approval for their corrupt schemes. |
Yes, the ADL does that. But the ADL also monitors everyday citizens it deems hostile just because they happen to belong to certain races or ethnic groups. |
You think you’re a good, sharp writer. You’re wrong, and your thought process is even shittier than your prose. |
Sadly true. |
Bowdoin grad. I can serve you a sh*t sandwich and make you think it’s a David Chang amuse bouche. Sound familiar?

| How about they actually combat antisemitism instead of going in their weird anti-left project of the month? |
Uh, yeah. Did you read my post? |
