Re: The American Road to Self-destruction

["Alan Krebs" <alankrebs303@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

So anti-Israel diatribes have arrived on PKT, from Australia no less. I
guess this was to be expected sooner or later. As someone once said (Mary
McCarthy about Lillian Hellman?) there is not a true word in this stuff,
including "the."

But here is an interesting question: Why is the Left so obsessed with
Israel? This tiny country of six million people surrounded by the most
absurd tyrannies left on this earth? Because of this obsession they
apparently don't have enough mental energy left to be concerned about (to
pick almost at random): Sudan (a million victims in a decade long war of
repression), Sri Lanka, Kosovo, Rwanda, Turkey and the Kurds, Iraq an the
Kurds, Chechnya, Kashmir, for God's sake?
