The man who tried the “Friends of Hamas” smear, among others, to attack Chuck Hagel, once wrote a piece calling for the ethnic cleansing of the West Bank by forcible expulsion of Palestinians. It is, as Goldblog duly notes, a fascist position. Money quote from Shapiro:
After World War II, Poland was recreated by the Allied Powers. In doing so, the Allies sliced off a chunk of Germany and extended Poland west to the Oder-Neisse line. Anywhere from 3.5 million to 9 million Germans were forcibly expelled from the new Polish territory and relocated in Germany… Arab-Jewish conflict is exponentially more volatile than German-Polish conflict ever was. And the solution is far easier. If there was “room in Germany for the German populations of East Prussia and of the other territories,” as Churchill stated, there is certainly room in the spacious Muslim states of the Middle East for 5 million Palestinians and Israeli Arabs. If Germans, who had a centuries-old connection to the newly created Polish territory, could be expelled, then surely Palestinians, whose claim to Judea, Samaria and Gaza is dubious at best, can be expelled.
There is an obvious logic there. It’s just evil. Until the right purges itself of this dreck, it deserves to continue to die.
