Walt and Mearsheimer just scratched the surface

Are you watching MSNBC?!? Donny Deutsch is hosting (I guess he’s in for the suspended David Shuster) and he’s doing a segment on Israel/Iran. Sole guest: Alan Dershowitz, who calls Israel "the perfect ally" and suggests Obama is another Neville Chamberlain. Deutsch laps it all up. His first follow-up:

"Alan, as a Jewish-American, I don’ t think there’s any disagreement that we need to stand together against Iran. I just want to war-game it a little…"

[P.S. Alan Dershowitz, in Chutzpah:

My generation of Jews was too young to fight against Nazism or for Israeli independence, too American to make aliyah (emigrate to Israel), too comfortable to put our bodies on the line for anything Jewish. Instead, we observed, contributed… We became part of what is perhaps the most effective lobbying and fund-raising effort in the history of democracy.]
