Opposition to laws muzzling Americans who criticize Israel has gone mainstream.  Two separate lawsuits were filed this week against a Texas law requiring state contractors to certify they will not boycott Israel.  Another lawsuit was filed by a local newspaper in Arkansas, which refused to sign a similar pledge in order to win an advertising contract.  Meanwhile, senators Bernie Sanders and Dianne Feinstein, and The New York Times editorial board, have condemned efforts to rush through federal legislation aimed at silencing Israel's critics.
