Correction, I asked if it was baseless slander. To date you've provided no basis for me to assume the slander has merit.
Now you are saying that we provide too much aid to Israel.
No, I simply showed that being against sending American taxpayer dollars to another nation is Washingtonian, unless you now contend that George Washington is also an 'arabist', because he didn't want us to get America wrapped around the axle of other nation's intrigues.
Whether or not that is the case, I take it you now agree that it is not a slander to call Novak an Arabist?
A failure on your part to provide any evidence that Novak is an 'arabist' has not compelled me to agree with you. The smear is still baseless, as "I say so!" isn't very convincing evidence on your part.
Considering all the taxpayer dollars President Washington sent to Arab countries that is a laughable statement.
Just out of curiousity "Mr. Washingtonian": do you care that President Washington actually sent huge sums to foreign countries?
(... as did Adams, and then there was that President Jefferson sending foreign aid also to rebels fighting the French... )
