Lightning

The New Neo Posted on June 9, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

Remember “Operation Lightning” in Iraq? Heard much about it lately? Well, it’s still going on, but I haven’t been able to find any coverage of these events in the MSM. I guess they’re not important. Iraq the Model provides the … Continue reading →

Jesse Larner on Moore and Bush

The New Neo Posted on June 8, 2005 by neoJune 8, 2005

Clive Davis posts an interview with one Jesse Larner, an interesting fellow who wrote a book criticizing Michael Moore. What’s so interesting about that, you say? Hasn’t that been done quite a few times before? Well, not from the left, … Continue reading →

Here’s to you, Anna Maria Louisa Italiano Brooks (aka Anne Bancroft)

The New Neo Posted on June 8, 2005 by neoDecember 7, 2008

This news is a shock–Anne Bancroft is dead at age 73. I realize now that in the list of my ten favorite movie stars, she should have had a place. But maybe I forgot to list her because she wasn’t … Continue reading →

The Village Voice gets it right, and so does Amnesty

The New Neo Posted on June 7, 2005 by neoJune 7, 2005

Amnesty International, the organization to which I belonged for 20 years (but no longer do), still does some good work. As some commenters here have pointed out, AI has reported on bad conditions in prisons in Castro’s Cuba–not quite a … Continue reading →

The MSM gets a twofer

The New Neo Posted on June 7, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

In my previous post on the Koran/urine-splashing incident, I spent some time wondering why this story got so much coverage. Some things were fairly obvious: yes, the MSM seems determined to report anything that might reflect badly on Bush and … Continue reading →

This dog isn’t shaggy (neither are the horses)

The New Neo Posted on June 6, 2005 by neoJuly 9, 2009

I’m a sucker for dog stories, and this one is epic. There are so many heroes here, I don’t know where to begin–Dawn Montiel and her son, the victim’s little sister, the staff at the school. But all the medals … Continue reading →

MSM as Impressionist art: the vote in south Lebanon

The New Neo Posted on June 5, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

The subject? Today’s elections in south Lebanon. The assignment? Compare and contrast: Here’s exhibit A, an article submitted by Reuters, via Yahoo News. Here’s exhibit B, an article submitted by IC Publications (I’d never heard of them before, but they … Continue reading →

On the accidental Koran urine-splashing

The New Neo Posted on June 4, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

Cannibalizing from my own comments again, from Roger’s: As I went to my computer today, and my home page came up (Yahoo news), and I saw that the lead story (AP, naturally) was headlined, “U.S.: Gitmo Quran Was Splashed With … Continue reading →

The Brothers Hitchens: Dostoevsky lite

The New Neo Posted on June 4, 2005 by neoMay 8, 2010

I didn’t know that Christopher Hitchens even had a brother—he hardly seems like a person who has relatives at all, but rather to have sprung, full-grown, from the head of some fairly malicious Zeus . But he does have a … Continue reading →

Ashkenazi Jews, genetic diseases, and intelligence

The New Neo Posted on June 3, 2005 by neoSeptember 19, 2007

As this article appearing in today’s NY Times itself mentions, the theory isn’t very PC. I see some possible flaws in the reasoning–at least as it’s described in the article. Of course I’m no scientist (obligatory disclaimer), but I do … Continue reading →

The International Criminal Court as theater

The New Neo Posted on June 2, 2005 by neoAugust 28, 2009

There are certain bloggers with whom I seem to be in synch–we’re interested in the same issues, often at the same time. Sometimes I find myself writing a post only to discover that one of these simpatico bloggers has just … Continue reading →

Changing a mind: more on Radical Son

The New Neo Posted on June 1, 2005 by neoAugust 4, 2007

As I wrote earlier, I’ve been reading David Horowitz’s autobiography of political/psychological change, Radical Son. Now, at two-hundred-plus pages into the work and only halfway through, I think Horowitz could have used a more ruthless editor. But the book remains … Continue reading →
