Noted Zionist enthusiast Seth Lipsky, a former editor of the Forward and the New York Sun who paints portraits of Zionist historical figures like David Ben Gurion and Ze’ev Jabotinsky and has them hanging in the living room of his Brooklyn Heights townhouse, has a column in the New York Post today that might be read as a companion piece to Shaked’s provocative little genocidal screed. The headline of the digital version is “Hamas and Horoshima: The Grim Morality of Fighting Evil.” Lipsky, said by the Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg to have “the most interesting mind in journalism,” likens Israel’s Gaza dilemma of 2014 to the situation the US found itself with Japan in 1945, implying the righteousness of a total onslaught against Hamas, hang the civilian casualties and talk of war crimes. I’ve read many deranged things since taking up the subject of the US-Israeli “special relationship” in the wake of the smearing of Chuck Hagel in early 2013. This is certainly going to be on my personal Top Ten List.
