There is a very long list of such, not the least are questions about 9/11 & Israeli intelligence. These things cannot be pursued in the USA for PC reasons

To which I say: hogwash. Anti-Zionism is practically a litmus test to work in the left these days, you telling me nobody can seriously criticize Israeli intelligence or AIPAC? After Harvard published Walt and Mearshimer's POS excuse for a paper?

And that's not even mentioning the traditional Arabists at the State and CIA! Scheur and his ilk going on and on against Israel, that isn't allowed? They've been thrown out of polite society? Brzezinsky and Carter, have they been stifled and declared bigots?

Do please be serious. Don't confuse criticism with PC stifling, the huge preponderance of which happens in the same direction as the inclination of our media elites, which is towards the left. A left which used to be pro-Zionist, but is now anti-Zionist. I cannot count the times and ways I have read or been told that the US should jetison Israel, the alliance is not in our national interest. And now you're trying to convince me that Israel is a sacred cow. No dice.
