Trifkovic vs. Spencer: Another Neocon Purge

Indeed I suspect that Spencer, who owes fealty to neoconservative impresario David Horowitz as an employee of Horowitz’s Freedom Center, was expressing his anger on cue. There was absolutely nothing in Trifkovic’s statements that could justify Spencer’s degree of outrage. The offending Christian comes from a country that has never persecuted Jews. When the Second World War comes up in conversation, Trifkovic, like other Serbs, rages against German Nazis, and he does so with the same ferocity as Abe Foxman and Alan Dershowitz. If this guy is an anti-Semite, then no goy (save possibly for a neocon employee) stands above suspicion of being one.

This of course is the crux. For a few months now some of the neocons, and most obstreperously Horowitz, have been annoyed that some spokesmen for the right (who are naturally kept off the Fox network) have been calling for an end to foreign aid—and most particularly to its main recipient, Israel. Last month Horowitz had it out with Ron Paul-backers and other libertarians at CPAC and landed up calling those he was arguing with anti-…you finish it.
