Joe Klein Cannot Read
Glenn Greenwald wrote a column about Jeff Goldberg, the Iraq War, and the moral issues surrounding invasions of countries, in which he mentioned Germany's invasion of the Sudetenland, among other examples. Quote: "It should go without saying, but doesn't: the point here is not that the attack on Iraq is comparable to these above-referenced invasions." Time's Joe Klein responded: "And now, Greenwald—who, so far as I can tell, only regards the United States as a force for evil in the world—has laid out the incredible notion that the liberation of the Kurds, which Jeff celebrates (and so do I, and so do civilized people everywhere) as a happy byproduct of George W. Bush's dreadful war in Iraq, can be compared to the Nazi seizure of the Sudetenland." Joe Klein is the world's best reader.
