And not surprisingly, it's one of those anti-democratic champions of the defunct and discredited Geneva Initative, back from the dead like a zombie someone forgot to torch.

I thought Daniel Levy's piece in this past Sunday's Boston Globe, Visions of Israel after the conflict, was something of a one-off. It contained this eyebrow-raiser:

Strong on substance? Yikes. Levy goes on to reveal that AIPAC is too in the bag to Likud:

So here they are again, these champions of Israeli democracy, coming overseas to beg for allies against their domestic political opponents, and even cozying up to Walt and Mearsheimer to do it without a care as to the damage they do. The Lobby was alright when the Geneva Initiative people brought the American Jewish Community over to prep them to go home and sell their surrender plan to the American masses, and help pressure their countrymen for them because they couldn't convince them themselves. Fortunately, the hoi polloi weren't having any of the pig in a poke our "leaders" were trying to sell us.

Levy's reference to the W&M piece was no one off, as this piece which appeared two days later on an Indian-oriented web site shows: So pro-Israel that it hurts. Here the mask is off, and this guy who warns in the piece that "Israel would do well to distance itself from our “friends” on the Christian evangelical right" has no trouble using Walt and Mearsheimer and their allies for his own purposes.

Really? Mr. Levy needs to get out more. Efforts to delegitimize Israel are ongoing, serious and need to be fought. Instead of contributing to the problem by sticking another knife in the back of his countrymen and their allies, he could go home and try to win an election -- he'd then see how quickly the American Jewish Community falls into place for him. Instead, he demonstrates the worst characteristics of the far-Left, with all its coercive utopian, anti-democratic impulses on display, and where even the left-leaning American Jewish establishment isn't left-leaning enough.

At the end of both articles, Levy is described thus:

No wonder Barak lost.
