Jack Ross sent along this piece attacking Marty Peretz's rebarbative response to young Jewish online journalists who are enraged by Gaza. Peretz called the kids selfhating Jews, or words to that effect: "hatred of their inheritance." (Son, here is your inheritance: kill Arabs.) Jack recommended it because it underlines one of the great themes of the Gaza Slaughter: the ways in which the internet, which grows in power by the day, is not fertile soil for the Israel lobby. Peretz knows that, Jack says, and is resorting to the usual answer to innovation, sorcery.

Tzipi Livni excoriated Al-Jazeera TV for showing images from Gaza. Killing Palestinians was much easier back in the days of print media (re: 1948).
If Baptists and Evangelicals were just a tad bit more familiar with the internets, perhaps anti-Palestinian groups which feverishly police the internet on behalf of Israel, would be able to achieve greater control of the I-P discussion.
