(Note to literalists: the Watched column presently contains only a smattering of 'warblogs' because the facilitator of the template-change--Dr. Menlo--is not very familiar with them, and will be adding more as they are sent to him. Also, this blog may contain areas of allusion, satire, subtext, context and possibly even a dash of the surreal: wannabe lit-crits beware.)

WARBLOGGER WATCH
Monday, January 27, 2003
G. Harlan Reynolds, Avatar of Idiocy, refuses to let anything like, say, the absence of substantiation prevent him from repeating the claim "that even leftie Jews are being frozen out of A.N.S.W.E.R. - organized marches if they believe that Israel has a right to exist."
That A.N.S.W.E.R.'s claim on the anti-war movement amounts to little more than having secured permits and chartered buses has been acknowledged by even the likes of M. Kaus, who likewise acknowledged that any mass movement is very much a mixed bag. This being the warbloggergarten, GHR and friends such flee facts and indulge in collective fantasy. An objectionable photo of anti-Semites marching in Davos is proof positive that the stateside anti-war movement is at base hostile to Jews. Okay, Glenn.
I have no idea how accurate the charge of leftie Jews being "frozen out" are. I defer to them on this point. I would however like some proof to substantiate the extraordinary claim that the anti-war movement as such (the equivalent of A.N.S.W.E.R., as Glenn, Andrew, and the lesser luminaries have been claiming) is hostile to the existence of Israel. posted by Anonymous9:46 AM
