The cynical use of Christian suffering. But since we need these regimes as allies and resource suppliers, we really don’t care. Cold War intellectual warriors like Robin Harris (author of this glib piece. Whose interest in preventing pogroms was non-existent as long as they were carried out and endorsed by friendly governments? Whose tender concern for the Jewish people was kindled only as a side-effect of what it might mean for non-Jews at some later point? Do not the tax collectors do the same? Turning...
