Shalom Chaim,
Thanks as always for your great shows.
This week’s Eric Hoffer quote is on ‘Intellectuals’.
“...There is nothing in contemporary America that can cure or alleviate their [Intellectuals] chronic frustration. They want power, lordship, and opportunities for imposing action. Even if we should banish poverty from the land, lift up the Negro to true equality, withdraw from Vietnam, and give half of the national income as foreign aid, they will still see America as an air-conditioned nightmare unfit for them to live in.”
—The Temper of Our Time, Chapter VI “Some Thoughts on the Present” (1966)
My questions for the week.
1) The UN is a corrupt and evil organization. Without U.S. support and funding, the whole miserable enterprise would immediately collapse. Everybody knows it. So why isn’t there anyone pushing for a “UN out of the U.S.” movement? Do you think such a movement will eventually occur? If a Republican ran with that as part of his/her platform, would it work for or against him?
2) Can you recommend any books that give the true history of the founding of the modern State of Israel or of groups like Lechi?
3) What do you think of conservative/libertarian blacks like Thomas Sowell and Walter E. Williams? I have heard them speak many times and they impress me as very bright and articulate. How did they manage to escape the cesspool of black culture? Is it because they are older and so missed the degrading effects of Liberalism on the black community? What about Retired Army Col. Allen West who is campaigning in Florida's 22nd U.S. Congressional District? From what I’ve seen and heard from him so far, he seems like a true patriotic and conservative American. (
