It's become something of a mantra on the left that the whole world initially sympathized with the U.S., and that America's image was so irredeemably tarnished only after the evil warmonger George W. Bush trashed the Constitution and sent the American military off to slaughter innocent Muslims in the interests of Halliburton and other capitalist behemoths. Read Article 2) Posted Aug 24 2011 The Medved Alternative By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor If you're a conservative who's tired of the increasingly cartoonish yawping coming from the Limbaughs and Hannitys and Savages of talk radio, you might want to check out Michael Medved's nationally syndicated program (heard in the New York area on WNYM 970 from 3-5 p.m. weekdays and 3-6 a.m. Sundays). Read Article 3) Posted Aug 10 2011 More On That Old Democratic Treadmill By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor The last couple of columns, both of which focused on Jewish voting habits in presidential elections, inspired some spirited responses from readers. Read Article 4) Posted Jul 27 2011 Jews And The Democratic Treadmill By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Two weeks ago, in a column on Jewish voting patterns, the Monitor pointed to the 1984 electionas evidence "that a Republican presidential candidate, whether incumbent or challenger and no matter how strong his record on Israel, will always lose among Jewish voters when the alternative is a liberal Democrat without any pronounced or well-known hostility to Israel." Read Article 5) Posted Jul 13 2011 Obama, Jews And 2012 By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor A Gallup poll released last week showed Barack Obama maintaining a strong level of Jewish support. The poll sparked yet another round of newspaper stories and web articles on whether the Republicans have any hope of even a respectable showing among Jews in the 2012 presidential election. Read Article 6) Posted Jun 29 2011 Israel's Demented Leftist Icon Raves On By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor In the immediate aftermath of the 9/11 attacks on America, Uri Avnery, the ancient icon of the Israeli Left, a bitter old fool who serves as living refutation of the belief that wisdom is an inevitable byproduct of old age, placed the blame squarely on the U.S. and its support of Israel. Read Article 7) Posted Jun 15 2011 Revising The Six-Day War By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Every few years at around this time the Monitor reflects on how perceptions have changed so drastically regarding Israel's massive victory in the 1967 Six-Day War. Read Article 8) Posted Jun 07 2011 The Ignorant American By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Two days after the 9/11 attacks, CNN and Time magazine released a joint poll asking whether the U.S. should declare war. Sixty-two percent of respondents said yes. Asked whom war should be declared against, 61 percent said they didn't know. Read Article 9) Posted May 18 2011 Kushner No Mere 'Critic' Of Israel By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor From the reaction of many on the liberal/left to the controversy over CUNY's granting an honorary degree to playwright Tony Kushner, one sees yet again just how unremarkable and acceptible the most virulent views of Israel have become, even - perhaps especially - among Jews. Read Article 10) Posted May 04 2011 Remember 2002? (Part II) By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Last week we noted that with the recent brouhaha over Judge Richard Goldstone's backtracking on the most sensational charge leveled against Israel in his 2009 report to the UN, "much has been made of the damage done by that document to Israel's standing in the court of international opinion." Read Article 11) Posted Apr 28 2011 Remember 2002? By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor With Judge Richard Goldstone's recent sort-of recantation of the most incendiary charge leveled against Israel in the 2009 report to the United Nations that will forever bear his name, much has been made of the damage done by that document to Israel's standing in the court of international public opinion. Read Article 12) Posted Apr 13 2011 The Man Who Remade The NY Times By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Though he had more than his share of detractors during and after his years as managing and then executive editor of The New York Times, can there be any doubt that the paper began its precipitous and still ongoing decline the moment A.M. Rosenthal was forced, by company policy, to retire in 1986 at age 65? Read Article 13) Posted Mar 30 2011 Pro-Israel But Not Presidential By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Sarah Palin sure makes it hard for those who care about Israel to dismiss her out of hand. On her brief visit to Israel last week she said the kinds of things one expects to hear from passionate Israel activists at meetings and rallies, not from politicians - even those with stellar pro-Israel credentials - concerned with appearing wise and judicious and nuanced and even-handed. Read Article 14) Posted Mar 23 2011 Web Picks By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor The last time the Monitor listed some worthwhile websites and blogs it was back in the fall of 2009. So consider this listing a "Best of 2010/2011." Read Article 15) Posted Mar 09 2011 President Palin? By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Last week's column, on the declining popularity of several of talk radio's most prominent conservative hosts, seems to have ruffled more than few feathers. Even some readers who in the past have agreed with the Monitor virtually down the line took issue this time - but, interestingly enough, not on the subject of talk radio hosts. Read Article 16) Posted Mar 02 2011 Twilight Of The Radio Gods? By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor The interview with John Batchelor on the front page of this week's Jewish Press should clarify, for anyone who still doesn't get it, why Batchelor's show is thriving while many of talk radio's erstwhile Big Names suffer declining ratings. Read Article 17) Posted Feb 16 2011 More On Liberal Rage By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Our column week before last, "No Hate Like Liberal Hate," drew a number of interesting responses from readers, many of whom submitted their own favorite morsels of liberal hate speech. A few noted that for many years Boston Globe columnist Jeff Jacoby devoted a column every December to the year's most egregious examples of liberal hate. Read Article 18) Posted Feb 09 2011 Sharansky: Reagan Right, Critics Wrong By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Ronald Reagan, who would have been 100 this past Sunday, had an instinctive affinity for Jews and Israel. As an actor who spent decades in the heavily Jewish environment of Hollywood and who counted scores of Jews among his friends and colleagues, he moved easily in pro-Israel circles. Both as a private citizen and as governor of California he was a familiar sight and a favored speaker at various functions for Israel. Read Article 19) Posted Feb 02 2011 No Hate Like Liberal Hate By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor Need further proof of how hopelessly liberal the mainstream media really are? Just consider the coverage of the accusations of incivility and incitement hurled at Republicans and conservatives by Democrats and liberals in the aftermath of the December shootings in Tucson. Read Article 20) Posted Jan 26 2011 When Lieberman's Week Of Glory Turned Sour By Jason Maoz, Senior Editor The announcement by Senator Joe Lieberman that he will not run for reelection when his current term is up in 2012 triggered the Monitor's memories of the highlight of Lieberman's political career: Al Gore's selecting him in August 2000 to be his vice-presidential running mate.
