"Saying the Israelis pulled out of Lebanon is like saying the Nazis pulled out of Moscow," he said.

While extremely inappropriate, a well-meaning person could make this kind of statement on the spur of the moment without realizing how bad it sounds.

Without knowing anything else about Bevilaqua, I'll reserve judgment, though from the other comments the verdict sounds bad.

If such a remark was prepared, or not sincerely apologized for afterward, that's totally unacceptable, and most likely anti-Semitic in motivation.

Major Bob has a security business in Lebanon so he's not exactly an unbiased source these days.

FNC should drop him for his clear conflict of interest regarding this matter.

I normally find myself in agreement with the Major. However, not on this issue.


I understand he was trying to use an analogy, but comparing the Israel to Nazi Germany was a bad move.

Sorry Major, but I strongly disagree with you on this one.

Has he hit his head over the past year or two?

What's he doing on there? Shouldn't he be on CNN or something?
