RE “WI Whistling,” the article is a classic example of some sort of propagandistic nonsense: (1) Identify a real problem with solid evidence and reasoning; (2) Claim to have identified the cause, without a shred of evidence; and (3) Proclaim that you have a cure, which in fact will be a thousand times worse than the disease. Just because you are right that the patient has bubonic plague, that does not prove you are right that it was caused by a witch’s curse, and it certainly doesn’t mean you should drink a gallon of hydrochloric acid to take care of the problem.

Tab the NY Times Week in Review “What to Do About Israel”; As always Frank Rich, and Frank, for an article that is stunning in its incredibly accurate insight into my life experience in the Jewish community read Michael Chabon’s “Chosen But Not Special.”
