Entry: Heil Hillary? Link: http://www.takimag.com/site/article/heil_hillary#15462 Post contents: I find it a hoot that that Jonah Goldberg is actually picking on Michael Lerner. After all, Lerner's son actually served in the IDF (Israeli Defense Forces) a group that Goldberg hardily endorses from the sidelines. You would have though that Jonah would have given Lerner a little more slack knowing that the antiwar beliefs that Lerner outwardly holds do not seem to have filtered down to his very much more pro Zionist children. A few years ago I attended a rally opposing the Iraq War at which Lerner spoke. After his speech I went up to him and asked him whether it was true about his son's IDF involvement. He said it was true but then immediately turned and tried to get as far away from me as possible.I got the impression that he very much didn't want for others to hear the rather embarrassing question that I had posed him.
