		<description>&lt;p&gt;&quot;And again I&#039;d cite the scouring attitude that young Jews like myself and Geoff Garin (Hillary&#039;s aide) had back in the 70s when it came to accountability for the Vietnam disaster. Don&#039;t we owe this great country the same postmortem this time round?&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If we get this postmortem, will it be because Jews fell an affinity for the rest of the nation, or because Jews feel vulnerable?  &lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Yes, yes I blogged about it but too lazy to post the link.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Or am I? (cue dramatic music):&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&quot;First, the A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm policy recommendation paper was written by Richard Perle and other neocons.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The &quot;Clean Break&quot; paper was written for then Israeli prime minister, Bibi Netanyahu, and stated that for Israel to be secure, Iraq, Iran and then Syria would have to be &quot;taken out&quot;.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In that order.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&quot;An effective approach, and one with which American can sympathize, would be if Israel seized the strategic initiative along its northern borders by engaging Hizballah, Syria, and Iran&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&quot;So lets not kid ourselves - Israel views the destabilization of Iraq, Iran and Syria as its national goals.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&quot;So what happened after the &quot;Clean Break&quot; study, written by American Citizens for Israel?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Why, the Project for the New American Century was born.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Think about the dates.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&quot;Clean Break&quot; was written in 1996.&lt;br /&gt;
PNAC is founded by Jewish neocons in 1997.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;PNAC is then, simply, an organization to carry out the &quot;Clean Break&quot; goals to make Israel more secure in the Middle East, by using American military and money to accomplish those goals.&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I know, this is deep and Mr. Weiss might have trouble absorbing this info (as it is simply monstrous).&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But this bears repeating:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&quot;Think about the dates.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;&quot;I believe the American left is also claimed by the Israel lobby...&quot;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Absolutely agreed. It&#039;s accompanied by a huge ideological and academic onslaught. The latest being the suggestion of a straight line from German left wing antisemitism and terrorism and the campus dissent on Israel.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I think that is why the American Jewish left needs the expression of solidarity and not the niggling that often goes on here. They are the group that is most heavily under ideological attack. That&#039;s what it feels like to me.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Why we should not quarrel now:&lt;br /&gt;
