Turning a Blind Eye
While New Yorkers are obsessing over the possibility of a socialist Muslim becoming mayor of their town this autumn, I have yet to read or hear anything about the Palestinian woman doctor who is still operating on the wounded and dying while nine—yes, nine—of her children were killed after an Israeli bombing attack. I suppose if I go on I will be accused of anti-Semitism, such is the grip the neocons and the Israeli lobby have on the good old US of A. A recent know-nothing called Hammer, who works for Newsweek—I was surprised to read the rag still exists—accused The American Conservative of something along those lines, simply because TAC advised Uncle Sam not to get involved in the Middle East. A wise suggestion, and one that was the reason why Pat Buchanan, Scott McConnell, and yours truly founded the magazine 22 years ago. (The moron in the White House listened instead to the neocon cabal, with the disastrous results that we had predicted.) Now another neocon moron attacks the magazine that has yet to get anything wrong. Which brings me to the point I wish to make this week.
“Murdering children makes any normal person’s blood boil, yet right-wing newspapers in Britain and America have not printed a single word about it.”
