Walter Reich in the LA Times (req. reg.) :
Genocidal mass murder continues to foul the world. So do large-scale massacres of civilians and brutal executions.
Yet the foulest epithet in any language — “Nazi” — is hurled not against any of the perpetrators of those crimes but, uniquely and systematically, against Israel.
A piece well worth reading. We received a number of alerts from concerned Times readers regarding an illustration that accompanied this article in the print edition. The illustration (above – click for larger version) was the word ‘NAZI’ with Israel written inside the ‘I’.
While the illustration was ill-conceived, its context alongside the article indicates that there was no major impropriety from the Times on this one.
