17. I see they are also railing against the Neocons
Rather like Pat Buchannan, they can occasionally sound like they are on the same side we are re: the war, but upon closer examination you find that we are decidedly NOT on the same side. Or I would hope not, anyway.

How much of the neocon phenomenon is wrapped up in the security of Israel? Is that why Leibermann votes in their favor much of the time. Is that why the voices that sometimes cry out the loudest against neoconism also slip into anti-semitism when they point out how many pro-Israel folk are involved?

I'm just thinking we'd better be on guard for language from folks who sound like they agree, but turn out to be from a faction best kept at arm's length. Know what I mean?

Uh, I feel like I'm theorizing on such rudamentary knowledge. I hope I haven't offended anyone myself.
