A clandestine undertaking on behalf of Israel, the Jets and the Jews.

 
Jewish Press

When it comes to Israel, the Jewish Press takes an extreme right-wing editorial line and gives a platform to extremists, including a few who condoned the murder of Prime Minister Rabin.

Strangely, however, the Jewish Press has not criticized President Bush, even as it expresses its opposition to the road map he strongly pressured Israel to accept. In response to critics, this week's Jewish Press explains that "We are hopeful that President Bush's heretofore demonstrated forthrightness and resolve will make a difference in the Palestinian mindset. If it doesn't, we trust the president will respond appropriately. Should he fail to do so, we can assure you The Jewish Press will strongly reconsider the support we’ve given him from the 2000 election onward."

Pretty soft stuff about the first President to insist on a Palestinian state from the paper that lambasted and never forgave Hillary for calling for a Palestinian state. Yet I'm comforted by the knowledge that if Jews continue to be blown up and Bush doesn't "respond appropriately," the JP has assured us that it will "strongly reconsider" its support of Bush in time for the 2004 elections.
