RE: [Marxism] More on Tony Judt

["Austin, Andrew" <austina@xxxxxxxx>]

It's almost as if the Israel Lobby felt that over-the-top denial was not enough 
to serve as a wink and a nudge to other elites that Walt and Mearsheimer's 
analysis was in reality sound, so they figured that some outrageous act of 
censorship would make it plainer. That's who the chilling effect is aimed 
at--elites. The masses will of course remain oblivious to all this because they 
don't have the knowledge frame to give such moments meaning. The Lobby is going 
after Finkelstein in a big way, too, as his tenure case is coming up.
