Those anti-Semites at Newsweek have published a three page article on Truman's role in the birth of Israel. Perhaps those of you who subscribe to HonestReporting and their monolithic view of the media can tell us why?The article itself is chock full of interesting details about the sea change in Truman's thinking and the role his friend Eddie Jacobson played in bringing it about. (Eddie, of course, was a willing tool of Bani Brith and other Zionist groups, which is fine) Also included is evidence of Harry's inveterate anti Semitism.
Note: Some of the correspondence between Jacobson and Truman which documents the dramatic change in the president's attitude toward Israel can be found here.
