Who you gonna believe, me

Who you gonna believe, me or your own eyes?

A Matt Welch reader turned up the link to this open letter to "friends of President Bush" by diehard Saddam apologist Jude Wanniski. Welch's extensive commentary on it is well worth a look. Wanniski casts Jeffrey Goldberg's powerful piece on Saddam's genocidal war against the Kurds as insidious, baseless propaganda. I agree with Matt and Human Rights Watch that Goldberg's take is far more credible than Wanniski's dismissal of it.

According to Wanniski, concerning Goldberg's credibility, "it should make a difference that Goldberg served in the Israeli army and is a citizen of Israel." Should it indeed? Jewish lies. Kurdish lies. Yep, it's all propaganda...
