Gaza shows growing power of internet, and Marty Peretz knows it

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.
