Michael Scheuer was one of the top CIA officials who worked to keep Islamist terrorist websites online at American ISPs ostensibly so the sites could be 'monitored' (he wrote about this in his book, "Imperial Hubris"). However, there has been very little monitoring of the hundreds of terror sites.

Have you read Scheuer's book?

No wonder the CIA hasn't produced a reliable piece of intel since the early '70s. If this nutcase is typical, the whole agency is rotten to the core as well as incompetent.

Besides, anyone who believes a "Jewish Conspiracy" is even possible just doesn't get that 1,000-year-old joke that says if you put a dozen Jews in a room you come out with 13 different opinions.

If you'd like to be on or off this middle east/political ping list, please FR mail me.

So let's see if we have this straight: The Council on Foreign Relations gives a public forum, hosted by a dean from an Ivy League university, to a guy who expounds crackpot theories about "clandestine" Jewish efforts to control America--including the Holocaust Museum!--and the "debate" is "unbearably restricted"?

And let's remember that Scheuer isn't just any old nutcase. He is, as Lemann said in his introduction, "the former head of the CIA's Bin Laden Unit." The quality of intelligence over at Langley would appear to have been even lower than anyone suspected.

Wow . . . and I thought that the CFR was part of the International Jewish Conspiracy! But here they are promoting anti-Israel conspiracy theories! Who'd-a-thunk it? I guess this means the CFR is now a beleagered ally in the "patriot" movement that all good anti-ZOGgers must defend . . . sort of like the United Nations!

The only "wagger" in this situation and in all others is HaShem, Yitbarakh Shemo, the Absolute Master of the Universe, Who created the world for the sake of Israel and the Torah. I'd say that sort of makes Israel important . . . wouldn't you?

The only absolutely forbidden subject in American public discourse is G-d's Will in and control of history. No one, including the rightwing anti-Semites, wants to bring that up! I hope Jewish liberals are pround of that.

Shout it from the housetops: HaShem, Hu' Ha'Eloqim!

Heh.
