I thought that Duke handled himself well, and, too a certain degree, raised the question of Wolf's neutrality. I knew Wolf was Jewish, but I didn't know he was ever involved w/ AIPAC. I suggest everybody visit David Dukes website and not assume we know the whole truth about the Holocaust. This, in my view, raises many questions/concerns about Jewish involvement in US news media. I'm not anti-Jewish, but I am anti-Zionist.
Shalom.

You are right there is a strong pro Israel lobby, but David Duke, an admitted racist and anti-Semite is such a biased source, that anyone seeking information should not waste their time checking his site. Questioning whether the holocaust happened should be a non starter. There's so much evidence that millions were killed by the Nazis, including records kept by the compulsive Nazis themselves, photos taken long before Photoshop was invented, and eyewitness accounts from both victims and Nazi guards.
The third source on your list, the article by professors from Harvard and Stanford is well researched and authoritative and it explains how the lobby works to censor criticism of Israel's policies toward the Palestinians. Jimmy Carter's new book also covers some of the same ground.
Blitzer used to live in Israel, and was a reporter there. Although he is biased toward Israel, and often fails to ask decent follow up questions in general, he is polite and allows his guests to talk. Blitzer also gets newsmakers and officials on his Sunday morning talk, Late Edition, that you won't see elsewhere.
All this goes to show that it's important to have a free press where you can get at least 2 or better yet, 3 sides to an important story!

1. If David Duke's opinions became the norm in the US, it would be a disaster for the entire country, not just minorities.
2. It is intellectually dishonest to deny the Holocaust. There is too much evidence -- documents, photographs, eye-witness testimony-- that large numbers of completely innocent Jewish people were murdered.
3. My opinion is that Blitzer is no better than Duke. Blitzer used his prominence to promote the war on Iraq while Duke, to his credit, opposed the war. At least 150000 Iraqis have been killed and the numbers may be higher.
Supporting an unnecessary war is immoral. And yes, the information was available at the time that Iraq didn't really have WMD and had no ties to al-Qaeda. Did Blitzer give a lot of airtime to Scott Ritter, for example? A man who turned out to be right in his assessment that Iraq had no WMD.
Blitzer, who considers himself a non-racist, supported a war that got America's poorest people killed since, with few exceptions, it is poor people who enlist. Poor people are disproportionately likely to be minorities.
Duke opposed this war and, ironically, opposed a war in which poor rural whites, inner-city African-Americans and Hispanic immigrants were the principal American victims.

David Duke was right...Our media lied to us about the meeting is Iran because it's Jewish pressured.
Wolf Blitzer is a Israel lobbying propaganda machine.

honestly no longer. His arguments were thoroughly ludicrous (Israel needed the warfare in Iraq? does no longer the warfare were in Lebanon or a rustic it truly is somewhat been attacking Israel then?), and being a former head member of the KKK doesn't precisely help his case because it obviously shows his purpose. And with each and each and every of the evidence that there replaced right into a Holocaust, the position thousands of thousands of Jews, gypsies, homosexuals, handicapped and political fighters were murdered like canine, how can one say that it did not take position? it truly isn't any longer a "Zionist" lie. The evidence says all of it.

I agree with you that the world (and Israel in particular) is full of hypocricy regarding the Holocaust. I know I have mentioned the following fact before, but I would like to mention it again: The (Jewish) Stern Gang in Israel tried, during WW2, to astablish ties with the Nazis. Geula Cohen was one of tis spokespersons, and her son, Tzachi Ha-Negbi, compared, towards the end of 1997, conspiracy theories regarding (late Israeli prime minister) Rabin's assassinasion with Holocaust deniel. In 1999, former SG members justified and praised the NATO jihad against Yugoslavia.
