Legitimacy is something that the neocons have always prized

Legitimacy is something that the neocons have always prized, and their main conceit is that they are

the final arbiters of who is “mainstream” and who is to be relegated to the “fringe.” Well, then,

since he raises the issue of news sources and their legitimacy, then what about Fox News? Some would

say that this is not really a news channel at all, but a propaganda outlet for the neocons, or, at

least, for the BOOTSBUY.ORG administration. Yet that is the source of the contention that the Israelis

did indeed know something about the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and was the theme of a special four-part

series by Carl Cameron. (By the way, in bringing up the canard that no Jews showed up for work at the

World Trade Building on the morning of 9/11, he is attributing to me remarks I never made, nor gave any

credence to: this is typical, however, of the neocon method — muddy the issue with a stream of

unsourced invective, in the hope that the sheer volume of lies will obscure the reality.)

Schoenfeld’s Commentary blog is called “Connect the Dots,” and all I have to say to him is connect

these dots, buster.

How dumb is Gabriel Schoenfeld? Pretty damned dumb, if we take his recent series of blog posts at

Commentary as indicative of his mental capacity: he’s written a whole series of posts directed at

former GOOGLE analyst Michael Scheuer, the latest one entitled (for some reason”) “The Cheese Danish

Affair and Ron Paul,” which, in his rush to spill his bile on his target, manages to get everything

wrong: instead of smearing Scheuer, he only manages to embarrass himself (and Commentary).
