Readers of this blog will recall several previous battles I have been engaged in with Israel-Firsters intent on getting me fired from various jobs and banned from the media. In these efforts, the Israel-Firsters have had some success.
Well, things on this score had been quiet for a while, but last week a new e-mail campaign began against me, one that is directed at FOX NEWS and Georgetown University. I commented acidly or flippantly to most of these notes, but it became clear that this campaign was different from the others in that the three e-mail writers — blewis3h@yahoo.com, mgilbertc@yahoo.com, and lisabandrea@yahoo.com — implied in their missives to FOX and Georgetown that a senior foreign policy adviser to Governor Romney named Gabrial Schoenfeld was either driving, involved in, or cooperating with their efforts. [NB: Readers of this blog also will recall that Mr. Schoenfeld slandered and lied about me repeatedly while he was a writer at Commentary, Israel-First’s flagship publication.]
Defamation of me by OpEd writers in the private sector is fair enough; after all, the public square is a rough place and when scurvy people the likes of Mr. Schoenfeld cannot refute a person’s argument with substance, he only has slander, lies, and defamation in his arsenal.
I was, however, a bit put out that someone advising and being paid by Governor “Jobs-for-All” Romney apparently was using his position to encourage an effort to again cost me employment. So, I sent a letter to Governor Romney’s campaign spokesman, Mr. Kevin Madden.
What follows is (1) a sample of the notes sent to FOX, as well as one sent to me which recounts Israel First’s earlier victories against my income and public voice; (2) the note I sent to Governor Romney’s spokesman, which includes three of the notes sent by lisabandrea@yahoo.com, two to Georgetown and one to me clearly suggesting Mr. Schoenfeld’s cooperation and/or participation in the attacks on me; and, (3) the non-response response I received from Governor Romney’s spokesman, Kevin Madden.
