「イラク戦争政策を推進した委員会のほぼ全員がユダヤ人」ユダヤ人新聞(JTA)が認める
JTA:The Global News service of the Jewish Peopleの8月24日の記事です。

これによりますと、ブッシュのイラク戦争政策推進のキャンペーンを張った委員会のメンバーのうち、4名がユダヤ系、残り一人(ラスベガスのカジノ支配人)は妻がユダヤ系だそうです。
これは反共和党キャンペーンの一つなのかもしれませんし、「ユダヤの指導方針を持っていると考えるのは間違っている」「多くのメンバーがユダヤ系であるのはたまたま偶然だ」という元報道官マット・ブルックスの声を伝えていますが、それにしてもものすごい「偶然」があったものだ。
しかしそれにしても、ユダヤ系の新聞がこのような、一部で以前から指摘されこれを大声で言うと「反ユダヤ主義!」「ネオナチ!」と脅迫されてきたようなことを、「注釈付き」であれ発表したのは非常に興味深いことです。
以下にその記事を貼り付けておきます。

Pro-'surge' group is almost all Jewish
Published: 08/24/2007
Four of five members of the board of a campaign promoting President Bush's policies in the Iraq war are Republican Jews.
The board of "Freedom's Watch" includes Ari Fleischer, Bush's former press secretary; Matt Brooks, the executive director of the Republican Jewish Coalition; Bradley Blakeman, a senior White House staffer in Bush's first term; and Mel Sembler, a longtime RJC leader and former ambassador to Rome.
Brooks told JTA that the fifth member, William Weidner, a casino operator in Las Vegas, is not Jewish. However, Weidner's wife, Lynn, is Jewish and is active in that city's federation. Blakeman is the group's president.
Brooks said it would be a mistake to regard the group as having a Jewish direction.
"It's a coincidence that several of the board members are Jewish," he said, noting that half of the donors contributing to the group's first $15 million ad campaign are not Jewish.
The ad blitz will promote Bush's "surge" policy in Iraq ahead of September, when Congress is set to assess the success of the influx of additional U.S. troops into Iraq.
Brooks said the aim ultimately is to build a grassroots organization that would promote Republican domestic and foreign policies and would replicate similar groups backing Democrats.
"This is a clear message to conservatives and Republicans and others who see what has happened on the left to let them know with Freedom's Watch that the cavalry is coming," Brooks said.
Of eight donors named Thursday in Politico, a political newspaper, four are Jewish: Sembler; Richard Fox, the chairman of the Jewish Policy Center, an RJC-affiliated think tank; Ed Snider, the founder of the Philadelphia Flyers ice hockey franchise who has been elected to several Jewish Sports Halls of Fame; and Sheldon Adelson, a Las Vegas casino operator who recently launched a giveaway newspaper venture in Israel.
