The best post I’ve read all day
Jeffrey Goldberg, natch*; I especially enjoyed his description of a graphic on an Iranian website:
Yes, that’s Roger Cohen on the left, next to a photoshopped image of the entrance to Auschwitz framing an “Iran Loves Jews” poster, next to photos of Ayatollah Khatami and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad meeting men I believe to be members of the ridiculous Neturei Karta anti-Zionist cult.
I’m (slowly, as is my wont) reading his book “Prisoners” and getting ever-more depressed about the future in the region.
*Don’t you find the term “natch” kind of insufferable? I know I do. Yet I still use the term…how odd. OK, rambling over.
