I asked a smart friend what he thought noteworthy about the Khalidi controversy:
"I suppose the vilification of Muslims, Arabs and Palestinians ('neo-Nazis'?) that not one American public figure but Powell has said a word about."
Oh my. Brings tears to my eyes. I pray for my country, and for President Barack Hussein Obama. P.S. Where is the train of intellectuals for Khalidi? NYRB? Leon Wieseltier?
