MTG--
After the Israelis waxed Hassan Nasrallah, the terrorist Hezbollah leader in Lebanon, James D. favorably eulogized Nasrallah in a X post.
One small taste of Nasrallah: In a 1998 speech marking the Day of Ashura, and published in what was Hassan Nasrallah's official website[57][58][59] at that time, Nasrallah referred to Israel as "the state of the grandsons of apes and pigs – the Zionist Jews" and condemned them as "the murderers of the prophets."[
Or this: October 7 attacks While calling for the "liberation" of Jerusalem and mentioning Israel as a "Zionist existence", Nasrallah called the attacks of Hamas on Israel on 7 October 2023 a heroic operation. Nasrallah had said that Hezbollah's missile and drone attacks against northern Israel, which began immediately after 7 October, were carried out in solidarity with the Palestinians.[17]
James D. also posted seemingly pro-IRGC commentary at EF-JFKA, regarding their barrages of missile attacks on Israel at the time.
James D. also ran a four-part series on his substack that quotes Joan Mellen's crackpot theory that LBJ, the Israelis and even the captain of the USS Liberty conspired to have the ship sunk, so that LBJ could send four fighter jets to drop nukes on Cairo. You can't make this stuff up.
If James D. has any ill feelings towards Putin, the KGB, the IRGC, the SV communist terrorists, or Hamas, he has never expressed such. Somehow, Western liberal democracies are aways the bad guys.
You know about the SV communist-terrorists. I am reading your (excellent) book.
What say you?
