Boston Globe, in Typical Form, Provides its Readers with Little Background

In what might be described as a "Hail (but under your breath) the Conquering Hero" welcome back to Rep. William Delahunt " from his controversial "fact finding" trip to Israel, Jordan and "Palestine" this week, the Boston Globe papered over the intense anti-Israel sponsors of the trip, J Street.  The trip's co-sponsor, Churches for Middle East Peace, yet another far left terror- apologizing outfit was not even described.  Nor was J Street's only recent endorsement of limited sanctions against Iran's drive for nuclear weapons.  J Street was adamantly opposed to any sanctions on Iran until Obama finally moved in that direction.  Martin Solomon of Solomonia was quoted, however, giving scant balance to an otherwise puff piece on J Street.

                       What informs The Globe when it comes to Israel matters, sadly, is the out of touch, non-leadership of the Boston Jewish Community Relations Council whose affinity for J Street and its anti-Israel affiliates is no secret.  Alan Solomont, now payback (for raising bundles of dough for Obama) ambassador to Spain (from cashing nursing home medicare checks to ambassador - now that's a career trajectory), is a member of J Street's "Advisory Council." 

In its unabashed, sycophantic adoration of Barack Obama, has J Street become an unofficial arm of the State Department?  Considering the irrelevancy of the Mitchell mission and the Obama administration's coldness to the Netanyahu government, add the J Street fiasco to the latest chapter in diplomatic incompetency.
