Reply #35: Typical BS smear [View All]

[oberliner]

Take one off-handed, alleged comment from a 40 year old blurb in Time magazine and extrapolate from it that someone is a "terrorist supporter" - sounds like the kind of nonsense the far-RW folks like to do with Obama vis-a-vis the Weather Underground characters.

The "According to Kahane.." sentence in the Wikipedia article, incidentally, links to nothing.

And, of course, in 1971 neither Kahane nor the JDL had engaged in any terrorist activities. All of the actions described in the second Wikipedia article are from well after that time.

Sad to have a post at DU that mirrors the: "Obama! Bill Ayers! Terrorist-supporter!" line of thinking.
