Sudden Onset of Leftist Indignation
Glenn Greenwald has made me sick before, when he questioned the loyalty of Joe Lieberman to the United States (vs Israel):
"... issues of American credibility and American security could not be any less important to Lieberman ..."
If you want to, you can read his latest at Salon.com:
"Nazis" and "Hitler" -- the Right's casual, trivializing political insults Jewish groups which in the past righteously protested the exploitative use of the terms "Nazi" and "Hitler" now sit by silently as Fox News routinely spews those terms against political opponents.
I don't think I'll dignify this man's lowliness with so much as a link, never mind a response. The Israel Lobby knows who its friends are. And who its friends are not.
Oh and by the way, my summons to join the Israel Lobby went unheralded, if not unheard, last week:
Rather than respond to Walt & Mearsheimer [or Carter or Greenwald] with our usual protestations, let's give them something to really whine about! Do your part to increase the power and expand the influence of the Israel Lobby today.
Maybe this week we'll get more of a response. Think about it: Who Ya Gonna Call when they start questioning your loyalty?
The Israel Lobby? Let's hope they're still in business.
GET WITH THE POWER.
AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU.

NB: This list is not my invention; it comes from Walt & Mearsheimer's new book.
The professors must be in transit - or resting - today, as they have no appearances scheduled. Tomorrow, though, they'll be on Comedy Central's "The Colbert Report," and Wednesday in person at MIT:
Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Kirsch Auditorium
Stata Center
Bldg. 32-123
Cambridge, MA
6:00 pm
I guess they couldn't schedule that one for 9/11, as did the former president of Iran, Mohammad Khatami:

... at MIT's Media Laboratory on 9/11. 2006.
