Right now there’s a contest going on for most shameless defender of Islamic fascism. It’s The Atlantic’s Andrew Sullivan vs. Salon’s Glenn Greenwald. And Greenwald just took the lead.
A few hours ago, Greenwald linked to Instapundit’s slam of him and tweeted snarkily:
“Useful Idiots” – Can right-wing war-cheerleaders who think in cliches at least invent new ones once every few decades?http://is.gd/czXru
I retweeted Greenwald’s tweet with my answer to his question:
If it aint’t broke… RT @ggreenwald: “Useful Idiots” – Can right-wing war-cheerleaders who think in cliches at least invent new ones?
The “useful idiots” phrase remains entirely accurate. Why replace it when it still works so well?
I was delighted and surpised to see Greenwald’s response to me:
@DaveSwindle Nothing helps Hamas more than acts like this attack – just like nothing helped AQ more than Iraq War- so who are Useful Idiots?
I replied and linked to John Perazzo’s lead story at FPM today:
@ggreenwald Israel wasn’t the one “attacking.” You’re the apologist for Hamas’ “humanitarian wing” http://tinyurl.com/32tdhz6
I have one question for Greenwald to answer, not that I expect him to have the courage to: Is there a campaign — which these “flotilla peace activists” are a part of — to finish Hitler’s work of exterminating the Jews?
