The League Of Losers" Let's take a little trip, shall we?
First, holding our noses, let's visit the vile Jeff Koopersmith Democrat Party liberal hatefest - the so-called American Politics Journal.
Here we find a link to this site: unansweredquestions.org, a leftwing site coyly asking various "unanswered questions" about 9/11. That most of these questions involve a complete ignorance of military aviation and a deliberate obsfucation of the facts means nothing to our liberal truth-seekers, who keep looking for A Sinister Bush Plot.
From there we find ourselves -surprise, surprise - linked to the demented " What Really Happened" website of lying jerk Michael Rivero, who peddles nasty anti-Semitic trash about Jewish plots to spread anthrax and carry out the World Trade Center attacks.
From Democrat activists to paranoid leftists to lying hate-mongers like Rivero - an unpleasant but significant little Web sightseeing tour. But what exactly is the significance?
First, some excerpts from a recent speech by a brave and decent man
"But where anti-Semitism and views that are profoundly anti-Israeli have traditionally been the primary preserve of poorly educated right-wing populists, profoundly anti-Israel views are increasingly finding support in progressive intellectual communities. Serious and thoughtful people are advocating and taking actions that are anti-Semitic in their effect if not their intent."
"Hundreds of European academics have called for an end to support for Israeli researchers, though not for an end to support for researchers from any other nation. Israeli scholars this past spring were forced off the board of an international literature journal. At the same rallies where protesters, many of them university students, condemn the IMF and global capitalism and raise questions about globalization, it is becoming increasingly common to also lash out at Israel. Indeed, at the anti-IMF rallies last spring, chants were heard equating Hitler and Sharon. Events to raise funds for organizations of questionable political provenance that in some cases were later found to support terrorism have been held by student organizations on this and other campuses with at least modest success and very little criticism. And some here at Harvard and some at universities across the country have called for the University to single out Israel among all nations as the lone country where it is inappropriate for any part of the university’s endowment to be invested. I hasten to say the University has categorically rejected this suggestion."
In a discussion, a friend referred to a "league of losers" - a coalition of the radical "left" and the populist, anti-Semitic, anti-capitalist "right". He expressed the opinion that it was a coalition unlikely to get very far in America.
I am inclined to agree, in the long run, but there is no doubt that such a coalition is now taking shape.
We see its outlines at Justin Raimondo's scurrilous AntiWar.Com, we see it again in the anti-free-market "nationalist socialism" of a Pat Buchanan - and we see it in the near-open anti-Semitism of the leftist anti-war movement. It is fitting - and ominous - that the new alliance of the populists and the Left should have been empowered by Osama Bin Laden's bloody and cowardly act of mass murder on September 11, 2001.
It's still just a league of losers, though.
