michael,

i recall reading that israel was at best ambivalent towards opening up a theater in iraq - since they would have preferred, and wanted, to take action against iran.

Well to be honest I really enjoy them personally and I usually have a tough time persuading my significant other of their importance, but I've never heard anyone use that term in civilized discourse.

No, no, blow job or not, you're missing the point (!), Michael. No matter how many Jewish groups are set to the task of vilifying each other, none is supposed to mount its attacks in a manifestly nitwitted and sloppy manner. A shanda of argument. Factional hatred is to be carried off with logic, arrogance, and panache, please. As my grandfather used to say (this remark excluded Jews, Greeks, and Italians north of Naples): "Some of these odars (goyim) have all they can do just to get their underwear on straight in the morning." As I watch official Mr. Foxman and the official Turks slurping deeply in stupid clichés, I have to wonder whether they have indeed got their underwear on straight, and whether an underlying inadequacy to argue trimly is what really drives them compulsively to self-righteousness. A moment ago I googled Jewishist, to see if there was such a word to go with Islamist and Christianist; and sure enough: 57 hits. Turkishist has yet to find its first commentator--I guess no one's checked the wretched state of underwear in Ankara yet.

Whether Mr. Foxman knows it or not, the ADL in this matter is folding so fast that it has never had a moment even to catch its breath to do battle against Jewcy. Not a faction fight at all; and hatred of Jewcy must be mixed with confusion: "Where did that puny group come from anyway?" ADL was blindsided, the way Old Régimes often are, through its own myopia and rigidity and false sense of invincibility.

But then, if Mr. Foxman and Mr. Gul could argue trimly, they wouldn't be persisting along such a stupidly hopeless tack as denial of the Armenian Genocide, would they? So maybe Mr. Foxman and Mr. Gul really do simply like each other and are going through a spell of personal hurt. Note Foxman's apology.

Mr George Shultz did mention the difficulty he was having as a foreign secretary while israel was occupying lebanon in the 80s and how the Lobby did not care for him but supported Israel and acted as the Government towards israel (in his memoirs ) he must have forgotten , Alzeihmer ? (spelling ?)
