From ...Gary,<BR/>Is this more of your free association. From my focus on fighting an asymmetric war you somehow see a connection to Mel Gibson's anti-Semitism ... last time I looked Mel had nothing whatever to say about war fighting. <BR/><BR/>And Patton's bigotry has nothing to do with his fighting strategy. Perhaps if Truman had followed his advice about the Soviet Union.... but that's another discussion. <BR/><BR/>So please try to stay on point.

The script should include material from Prof. Joseph Bendersky’s study of antisemitism in the American military (_The 'Jewish Threat_, 2000). I’m certain Gibson would want to include Patton’s 1942 warning about a Jewish conspiracy maneuvering to grab Morocco as well as his post-war characterization of Jewish DPs as "a sub-human species without any of the cultural or social refinements of our time."<BR/><BR/>But Gibson and Patton’s anti-semitism have nothing of signifcance to say on the current chapter in the ongoing tragedy unfolding in Israel and Lebanon except that Bill and the world should not rely on drunken movie stars or blood-lust Generals as guides in politics and war.gary dailyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06649278809690706179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9999692.post-1154549662706038102006-08-02T13:14:00.000-07:002006-08-02T13:14:00.000-07:00Good read.
