Senator Webb Proposed Obama VP

Why Have the Dogs Stopped Eating Their Neocon Dogfood? by Philip Weiss provides some careful analysis of Adam Kirsch's recent New York Sun article entitled The View from Parnassos.
Weiss focused on the implicit admission that Jewish money in the form of political contributions and think tank funding has insulated the US political consensus from increasing disenchantment with Zionism, the State of Israel, and the Jewish Zionist economic political elite.
In contrast, literary intellectual Zionists are beginning to feel mighty lonely, and their increasing isolation may engender some of the less rational sorts of comments that Jews like Ruth Wisse, Anita Diamant, and Nadine Gordimer make.
Because I had watched the full version of the German Nazi film version of Jud Süss in a graduate course at Harvard, Kirsch's offhand comment about the Nuremberg prosecution of Veit Harlan for directing that movie makes me think a discussion of the commission of crimes against humanity by Hollywood directors and screenwriters would be timely.

When I first saw Rules of Engagement directed by Friedkin and written by Senator Jim Webb, I said to myself, "Wow, this film topped Jud Süss in inciting racial hatred."
Shindler's List directed by Spielberg and The Spartan directed by Mamet are more subtle but equally evil in incitement of genocide or hatred.*
Certain types of racial incitement seem to crimes except when perpetrated by Jews against Arabs.
Two good articles on the Arab-baiting in Rules of Engagement are:
- "Rules of Engagement": A Highwater Mark in Hollywood Hate ...
- Why the 'rules' of racism are different for Arabs
