"I should think it's obvious that I'm responding to an obsession -- an obsession of contemporary culture, politics, the media, the arts. We have been getting 24/7 coverage of Jews, the Holocaust, and Israel for years now.

A non sequitur is a statement that doesn't logically follow the previous statement or question. It's a type of fallacy where the conclusion or response doesn't connect to the premise or prior conversation. Essentially, it's a random or irrelevant remark or conclusion.

Yes, I know what a non sequitur is. I don't see any here.

Tucker was accused of being obsessed with Jews and Israel. Joe Sobran was accused of the same thing.

Sobran addresses this accusation in his article (hence, not a "non sequitur"). He notes that one is only accused of being obsessed when one write critically on the subject.
