  • Straight Talk About Israel

    Mr Rosner does really invoke TRUTH regarding Israeli US relations. Instead, he calls for downplaying them. Why? Might it be that Rosner does not want the truth about Israeli US relations to be revealed? After 1948, Israel was an modern independent nation with its own foreign policy agenda which included expansion and inclusion of the ancient ...

  • AEI Neo Con Applebaum: Glass 1/5 Full!

    I got to hand it to Applebaum: at least she went over there and got some actual firsthand information before she put forth her neo con imperial worldview. I also have to thank her for not simply blaming it on 'Islamofascism'. The circumstances in Afghanistan are far too complex and nuanced than to simply blame Islam. The people of ...

  • Neo Con Claptrap for Georgia and Zion

    It was excruciating reading Ms Applebaum's diatribe given that her Neo Con world vision was so transparently encased in mantras meant to excite the gullible reader. , Russia is still the Soviet Bear from the north set to devour free nations? Russia is still waging an ideological struggle? August 2008 is like August 1968 and the Soviet ...

  • Zionist Propaganda for The "Shire" of East Europe?

    All the hoopla about saving Georgia from the terrible Russian juggernaut, like Georgia is Tolkien's ''Shire'' and its folksy way of life is in jeopardy- where is it coming from? Here on Slate and at the Washington Post, the commentary called for American action to protect Georgia from Russia. Anne Applebaum, Neo Con, American Enterprise ...

  • Re: more russophobia

    Einhard:Russophobia????? The article does NOT contain one mildly important thing. It doesn't mention Ossetians at all (correct me if I'm wrong). If you present the conflict without acknowledging the key group of people concerned, then it's obvious there is some agenda involved. Applebaum's presentation heavily leans against Russia, ...

  • Applebaum, part right part wrong on Russia/Georgia/Ossetia

    Well, Anne Applebaum has got it sort of right but also misses a lot of points. It doesn't matter that she is a brilliant and thoughtful journalist -- when someone tries to write about a story that he or she isn't really covering or following, they tend not to get it quite right. Personally I don't like Putin's Russia and I am a big fan of ...

  • European Racism Evident in Football Fans

    The better measure of European racism towards minorities is evident in the ongoing problems that European football fans have towards African, Afro-European, Arab and Jewish, and Asian athletes. Racism from football fans in Spain: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4024167.stm Racism from football fans in Germany and Italy is ...

  • Burma, Oil, & Neo Cons

    Connecting the global crusade for control of oil and the faction within Washington called the Neo Cons is fairly simple today. Thus, there is no surprise that Anne Applebaum makes a case for intervention in Burma. She is an operative of the American Enterprise Institute (AEI). The AEI is the leading Neo Con think tank in Washington and includes ...

  • Hey Ann: Your Neo Con American Empire is not Easy to Run

    Dear Ms Applebaum, I feel distressed that your neo-conservative vision of the American world empire causes you to crinkle your brow in concern. Other than allowing Ms Applebaum to frame discourse in her Neo Con worldview, here is an alternative insight into American meddling in Georgia and Abkhazia from The American Conservative ...

  • Applebaum's Myopia

    Last I checked some months ago, Ms Applebaum is adjunct fellow at the AEI, the chief Neo Conservative supra-corporate backed think tank which has engineered much of pres Bush's policy both domestic and some foreign. Immediately, Ms Applebaum's slant has to be approached cautiously. Then, the only 'expert' on Turkey she references is Zeyno ...
