Jay Nordlinger: Nader's antisemitism |
2006-10-04 |
"Impromptus" column, National Review Online, fifth item. Did you hear Ralph Nader on Israel? I know I’m late to this, but a friend recently sent me the YouTube link. The Conscience of Our Nation says, “The Israeli puppeteer travels to Washington. The Israeli puppeteer meets with the puppet in the White House and then moves down Pennsylvania Avenue and meets with the puppets in Congress, and then takes back billions of taxpayer dollars.” Wow: He has used an image straight from the historical anti-Semitic playbook. Has he spoken of the poisoning of wells, too? (A. N. Wilson, one of the most honored intellectuals in Britain, has.) And how about the billions and billions — I sound like Carl Sagan now — that the U.S. gives to Arab countries? Is that wrong, too, Ralph, Mr. Conscience? Is Hosni Mubarak a puppeteer? Was Arafat? Nader is incredible. At least he kept the Gore vote down. |

#2 Ya mean Ralph's not a saint? He's not a purist with absolutely no agenda? I am, like, soooooo shocked... |
