Orwellian erasure of Jewish history - the day after
More posts related to mine yesterday on the continuing battle over inconvenient shards of history.
Soccer Dad examines previous incidents of carefully-timed Arab outrage over the Temple Mount - what was their purpose?
If an Arab or Muslim leader has a goal, he will use the conflict over the Temple Mount divert international attention from his ambitions and rally the Muslim world around him. Ahmadinejad is using the cover of the phony charges now to increase his saber rattling and divert attention from his nuclear program and his foreign adventures in Lebanon and Iraq. As it did before, the world just tut tuts at the chutzpah of the Jews.
Add the fake massacres at Qana and the Mohammed cartoon riots. In fact, every time any Muslim riots anywhere about anything, the first question should be "Cui bono?"
Soccer Dad also links to Richard Cohen's column defending his record as a friend of Israel, and then fisks him thoroughly. (Cohen also defends Carter and Walt and Mearsheimer.)
The Baptist pastor who has been defending Nadia Abu El Haj (I'm not sure what his connection is) has taken issue with my post, but not with anything resembling a consideration of the real concerns about her scholarship. Don't bother going over there and arguing with him, he's not worth the trouble.
