Hughes Drops Jews
Free Beacon ^ | 1/29/13 | staff

Posted on Tuesday, January 29, 2013 11:40:29 AM by Nachum

The New Republic has quietly dropped at least five prominent Jewish writers from its masthead in a move that may signal the publication’s continued drift away from a staunchly pro-Israel standpoint.

The magazine has launched an aggressive new editorial direction under the ownership of wealthy socialite Chris Hughes, who is best known for sharing a room with Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg at Harvard University.

The names of several prominent Jewish writers from both the left and right of the political spectrum were dropped from TNR’s masthead in the latest issue.

They include: Daily Beast reporter Eli Lake, longtime TNR columnist James Kirchick, Washington Post columnist Charles Krauthammer, and onetime senior editor Lawrence Kaplan. Complicating the picture, former TNR editor Peter Beinart was also dropped from the masthead. Beinart is the publisher of Open Zion, an anti-Zionist Daily Beast blog sponsored by the New America Foundation.

Each of these writers had been well-respected longtime contributors to the magazine and frequently wrote about Israel and the Middle East.

The World Government is neo-feudalist/fascist in nature, but not nearly powerful enough to police the population of the entire globe, hence the big push to a) kill babies b) disarm the U.S. and subject us to genocide/FEMA camps, c) promote and use islam as a means of controlling the behavior of the serfs at the individual and village level, as islam and fascism are kissing cousins.
