• Orthodoxy: Re Egypt, House Foreign Affairs Committee will hear two Israel lobbyists and one other rightwinger, no Arab-Americans
  • Driss Moonves February 9, 2011 at 11:17 am

    Our soaring, boundless intelligence-- this is what makes us the envy of the world.

• Eric Cantor's brother is backer of illegal settlements in West Bank
  • Driss Moonves February 9, 2011 at 5:37 pm

    Neither the Heartland, nor non-Heartland folk, like Rachel Maddow, consider these settlements illegal, so, for this newscycle, anyway, Cantor's bro is not likely to become another Billy Carter.

• American revolution
  • Driss Moonves February 7, 2011 at 2:41 pm

    Maddow, always obsessive in her likes and dislikes, just doesn't care for "the Arab."

• The Egyptian revolution is coming– to the U.S.A.
  • Driss Moonves February 2, 2011 at 5:30 pm

    Its good to see the idea of a "scoop" still means something in journalism. After ten years, Phil's scoop is finally receiving some attention.

• 'Huffpo' gives Dershowitz a platform to say tyranny is just fine for 'the average Egyptian'
  • Driss Moonves February 1, 2011 at 8:52 am

    "I made aliyah to Israel in 1991, two weeks after receiving my BA in Political Science from Beir Zeit on the Hudson — otherwise known as Columbia University. I joined the Israel Defense Forces that summer and served as an officer for five and a half years."

    Sounds like a perfect replacement for the current Israeli Ambassador to the US.

• More on Joel Greenberg and his rabbi father
  • Driss Moonves January 8, 2011 at 4:34 pm

    My guess is that if Turkish American journalist, Cenk Uygur, had volunteered for the Turkish Armed Forces in order to serve on the Turkish-Armenian border, people would think he held a pro-Turkish bias, and probably should not cover Turkish Armenian relations for the New York Times.

    Here's the play to protect yourself if you think Israel is going to attack Iran:

• Letter to Rachel Maddow
  • Driss Moonves September 24, 2010 at 3:21 pm with 2 replies

    I don't think Maddow is a coward or a sell-out. I just think she is an unconditional supporter of Israel.

  • Driss Moonves September 24, 2010 at 3:19 pm

    I've never heard Rattigan criticize Israel. Do you have an example?

• Meeting 3 U.S. officers who are angered by the special relationship
  • Driss Moonves September 10, 2010 at 12:23 pm

    I'm a pre-Walt Mearsheimer , pre- Peace Not Apartheid reader of Mondoweiss. Anyone who is not encouraged by the progress made since then probably doesn't care about the cause.

• Snippets of my youthful Zionist indoctrination
  • Driss Moonves August 24, 2010 at 1:16 pm

    Meese began the program to nurture right wing "stealth candidates," like John Roberts, for the Supreme Court.

• 'CNN' gives platform to latest neocon astroturf war-with-Iran group
  • Driss Moonves July 12, 2010 at 2:52 pm with 1 replies

    Maddow doesn't talk about the Middle-East unless Richard Engel is present and Olbermann, doesn't talk about the Middle East.

• Greenwald wounded him. The pack moves in
  • Driss Moonves June 29, 2010 at 11:57 am with 1 replies

    Why do they need spies when the US has happily been shipping its state-of-the- art military arsenal to Israel for the last 50 years?

• Who does Tony Blair work for?
  • Driss Moonves June 20, 2010 at 12:09 am with 3 replies

    AMC is presenting a new series this summer, Rubicon, which exposes new aspects of the WASP conspiracy which has controlled American institutions since the founding of the United States. The protagonist of the show studies the machinatons of Iran,' a country, which we are told, 'is not exactly America's best friend these days, is haunted after nine years, by the deaths of his wife and child, who were, interesting enough, considering the hour, visiting the observation deck of one of the twin towers at the time it was attacked by the Moslems.

• When will 'NYT' get around to printing Emily Henochowicz's name?
  • Driss Moonves June 15, 2010 at 11:55 am

    sorry, I'm not that familiar with her name, for some reason. the correct spelling is "Emily Henochowicz."

  • Driss Moonves June 15, 2010 at 11:53 am with 1 replies

    Until American institutions allow an open discussion of American Israeli policy, the name, Emily Henochowitz, will not be printed in the New York Times.

• Let's be clear: We have taken the American left
  • Driss Moonves June 13, 2010 at 4:09 pm

    MSNBC, well Rachel Maddow once dared discussing the middle east with NBC correspondant, Richard Engel. And I saw Andrea Mitchell reporting from Israel on the Chris Matthews show. Dylan Rattigan couldn't find the Middle East on a map, and Keith Olbermann, after abandoning Fox, is still too traumatized by Murdoch retributions, to risk the wrath of AIPAC.

• Rep. Sherman: prosecute U.S. citizens involved with Gaza flotilla
  • Driss Moonves June 4, 2010 at 9:28 pm

    Since the Mitchell peace in Ireland, Irish tribalism has been pretty much dormant in the US, however, attacks of dual-nationalists like Brad Sherman against the Rachel Corrie, could ignite the passions of Americans of Irish descent. And unlike, Turkish Americans, Irish Americans are Christian and numerous.

• Can the Israeli government kill Americans with impunity?
  • Driss Moonves June 3, 2010 at 2:49 pm with 21 replies

    Had Dogan been killed on the Achille Lauro, perhaps the US government would have shown more interest.

• OMG: 'New York Times' finally debates... Zionism
  • Driss Moonves June 3, 2010 at 10:11 am

    Imagine, if you will, that Ethan Bronner's son, who is a soldier in the Israeli Army, participated in the flotilla raid.

    Would the NYT continue arguing that Bronner is not conflicted by his dual roles, as father of an Israeli soldier, and NYT Israeli correspondent?

• Obama: No daylight
  • Driss Moonves June 1, 2010 at 2:23 pm with 1 replies

    I plan on taking a look at the Olbermann and Maddow shows tonight to see if the Flotilla ever crossed their radar screens.

• Shadow of Emmett Till
  • Driss Moonves February 25, 2010 at 2:56 pm with 2 replies

    This is exactly the type of cause which is better left to private initiative. Somebody needs to alert Shelly Adelson and his Birthright outfit to the opportunities here.

• 4 years after its public editor called for Ramallah-based correspondent, Times is still in W. J'lem
  • Driss Moonves February 9, 2010 at 1:42 pm with 5 replies

    We should take the Bronner boy's enlistment in the Israeli army as an expression of solidarity with his mother and a public rejection of his father, a self hating Jew.

• Where was Huffpo when they were trying to rebrand Jim Crow?
  • Driss Moonves October 9, 2009 at 10:16 am

    Marty may have lost Sullivan, but Mort will never lose Huffington:
