...Asian community in Uganda--is accorded a scant few sentences and dismissed as a failure. That is however, considerably better than the discussion of Amin's shift from a relatively close relationship with Israel to a virtual alliance with Lybia. While the pathology of Amin's anti-Zionist position is explored in detail, in all its vicious paranoia, no serious effort to explain the political and/or economic motivations of his new alliance is attempted. It would seem that one is meant to chalk the whole thing up to the whimsical ways of a deranged dictator...
...MORE], for one. Or less, for that matter. Conspiracy abounds. Takeover conspiracies. Undue influence conspiracies. Creamy peanut butter conspiracies. Extra. Read all about it. Discredited former vice-crook-president charges Jewishes with Zionist sympathies and media control. That's just the cover story. Inside, how (in not so many words) the re-accredited former seed salesman from Plains creamed his way into New York Times headlines, and Memphis-blues-cooed his wormy fishhook into the tangled pickle that is Hunter Thompson's heart...
...Agnew, who would still be in prison were it not for plea-bargainers in the Justice Department like Elliot Richardson. Instead, Spiro the Kickbacker is on the bestseller list, with a novel charging, among other rantings and ravings, that a Jewish cabal controls the media and exerts extreme pro-Zionist influence on American foreign policy.

What the West would regard as a peccadillo (knocking that cake from a woman's hands) was exaggerated into "hooliganism," which is a felony in the Soviet Union. The possession of Zionist literature became evidence of treasonous intent. Even so, convictions had to be obtained by means of crudely rigged trials presided over by compliant or, in some cases, intimidated court officers...
...fourth time in six months, Israel last week was hauled before a United Nations panel to answer charges of cruelty to Arabs and Zionist expansion. The scene, as often before, was the 15-member Security Council, where Egypt accused Israel of "brutal and illegal actions" against the 650,000 Palestinians on the occupied Jordan West Bank. Zeh-di Labib Terzi, U.N. Spokesman for the Palestine Liberation Organization, urged the council to demand immediate Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank. Terzi's request, if adopted, would certainly provoke another U.S. veto...
