What a Repulsive Capitulation to the Forces of Bigotry and Evil

The Anti-Defamation League has, over the past few years, attempted to forge ties with the Christian Right, because they are perceived as "Pro-Israel."

It should be noted that the fundamentalist Christian definition of supporting Israel means that they want Jews to be around to die horribly and painfully during the Armageddon that follows the rapture, which is a different definition of being "Pro-Israel" than I was previously aware of.

Well the latest big of demagoguery coming from our Christo-Fascist friends is their Jihad against an Islamic center being built in lower Manhattan, largely because they think that this is an act of bigotry that can play well for them politically.

In response, to these contemptible proclamations from Sarah Palin, Newt Gingrich, and the rest of the merry band of bigots, the ADL has come out against the complex with a bizarre statement saying that the people screaming are bigots, but that the screaming has upset 911 victims, and that any construction should therefore be stopped.

The ADL has affirmatively allied itself with the philosophical descendants of the bigoted thugs who lynched Leo Frank, which, ironically enough, was the event that led to the creation of the ADL in the first place.

You would think after this, Buchanon would learn to love the ADL.

Peter Beinart (The Failure of the American Jewish Establishment ) was right.

If Peter Beinart, vociferous supporter of the Iraq war is right, it will be a first for him.


He is the quintessential The New Republic puke.

Even a puke can be right.

His trashing of professional Jews was masterful.

In fairness, I think I heard him say during a recent intereview that the Iraq war was a mistake and he was wrong.

It only took him 6 years.

I should be clearer:  I think that ratfucks like Peter Beinart should be eschewed by all thinking people, because there needs to be consequences for being that stupid, venal, and evil.

Instead, they go on talk shows, and the ones who were "Prematurely anti-war," are not considered serious.
