There are a lot of really good blog (and non-blog) posts out there about CNN's travesty "God's Warriors," and specifically Tuesday night's "Jewish Warriors" segment. There is also a lot of dreck. I don't know what to say about it right now, so I'll speak through a few of the others who have so eloquently captured the deception, the insult, the sheer ludicrous gall of this show. The dreck, I'll leave alone. For the nonce.
Hugh Fitzgerald does a marvelous job of explaining the fallacies, not only of the whole series, but of the mindset of its celebrity narrator, as well, at Dhimmi Watch. (His post is also magnicificent in its literary style, IMO.)
CAMERA tackles the tough questions and literally rips Tuesday's show apart piece by piece. As a vigilant media watchdog, this is what they do best.
Anne Lieberman has some interesting questions that you probably won't see elsewhere.
Rick Richman doesn't say a lot, but what he does say is penetrating and to the point, as usual. Mostly, he lets the show's promotional materials speak for themselves.
Elder of Ziyon finds enough in the first few pages of the transcript to take up a lengthy post, in which he eviscerates it nicely.
And Richard Baehr does a nice job at The American Thinker. You'd think there would be a limit to the factual and historical frauds to be discovered in one 2-hour TV show, but this one's apparently a bottomless pit.
Finally, here's a gratuitous link to Omri, who (I'm asssuming) is too busy with real life to blog about "Warriors" right now, but who has come around on the subject of Walt & Meirsheimer's likely antisemitic motivations and is full of compelling commentary on their new book. Since Christiane Amanpour deemed John Mearsheimer (along with Jimmy Carter) an appropriate expert to interview (extensively) for the show on the subject of pernicious Jewish terrorists, I think it fits.
