Why is it that leftist Jews who run the NY Times are more anti-Israel than Al Jazeera?…

I can provide some insight into this, because as a non-Jew I’ve asked the question on LGF and elsewhere. Pinch Sulzberger is actually Episcopalian, though ethnicly Jewish. His Ochs-Sulzberger family owner-predecessors at the helm of the NTY were all Jewish too, but of the distinctly self-hating kind. As a result, the paper has a long history of hostility to Israel.

Just close your eyes and wish "they" would go away? How about actually engaging someone with a different opinion? If you spend your entire life surrounded by nothing but people you agree with, you could really get yourself in some tight spots, and end up believing weird things like that there were WMDs in Iraq or that Iraq had anything at all to do with the 9/11 attacks. You've got to admit that this post is pointless. It accomplishes nothing. Now, if ANY Congressman is appecting money from or is in any way involved with terrorists, I would consider that to be news-worthy, regardless of their political affiliation. However, this post is simply whining about how the word "Democrat" wasn't in the heading of any of the articles that were sited. Even on that point it proves nothing, because a conservative publication was given as proof of MSM bias, and it didn't even have the "Democrat" in its entire article! So, like I said, it's pointless. Oh, and how about the President admitting the other day that there were no WMDs in Iraq? That was good info to add in there with all of the Saddam Documents that "prove" something about Saddam's WMDs.
