Ben Stein Quote of the Day

Ben Stein's Diary: Dropping the Hagel Bomb

 I hope the people who are supporting Chuck Hagel know that by confirming him, they are cementing at 100 percent that odds that Iran will get a nuclear capability without U.S. interference. Whether Israel can survive an Islamic bomb is questionable at best. This means a vote to confirm Mr. Hagel is a vote that expresses no interest in whether Israel survives.

 

As a student of anti-Semitism in Europe before, during, and after the Holocaust, no amount of hatred and loathing for Jews surprises me. Americans who do love Israel should be aware, though, that it is growing much more likely by the moment that there will be a second Holocaust.

 

If you haven't already, write to your senators. The Senate confirmation process is the only hope for thwarting a presidential appointment.

The list of American Jews who are actively or passively supporting the Hagel nomination defies belief. If there is a second Holocaust, history will marvel at how many Jews helped to bring it about.
