Indeed (via George Will):
In Europe, anti-Semitism has been called the socialism of fools, which is confusing, because socialism is the socialism of fools.
The whole column is worth reading. I am not fully comfortable with the linking of European anti-Semitism and European anti-Americanism (although I take his point), but I accept the broader thesis, which I have argued myself (and noted to some degree here and here), that the obstructionism vis-a-vis America’s Iraq policy is more about America than it is about Iraq.
Even more significant is his discussion of Europe’s “semi-suicide” at the hands of socialistic policies.
