Anyone who has an ounce of knowledge of Nazi history and the anti-Semitism in Germany during Hitler’s regime, knows exactly the whys and wherefores of publishing such an article.
It is meant to intimidate the voices of opposition to Obama’s deal with Iran, by trying to tie in all the opposition as simply a Jewish cabal. It is very transparent to anyone with a brain and a sense of honesty, the latter of which the NYT is sadly lacking.
Similar tactics have been used in the past on Catholic leaders, especially in the anti-abortion movement. Neither is acceptable, but at least the Catholics in America have no history of annihilation of the population as have the Jewish people.
The NYT ought to apologize, but it will not do so.
The ‘Jewish cabal’ thing pisses me off regardless which ‘side’ is doing it.
The New York Times is wrong on this one...
anti-Semitism in Germany in the 30s and 40s, the Times kind of took a pass on reporting that.
