Edward Rothstein is the official New York Times’ anti-Arab/Muslim-in-residence. He was the one who wanted the Arab American Museum in Dearborn to feature terrorists in the Middle East. Here, he talks about the censorship of the a play about Rachel Corrie. This “art” critic supports censorship of art, if it dares to tackle the Arab-Israeli conflict in ways that are not approved or authorized by AIPAC. Notice that he quibbles with “facts” (and he is wrong on facts)–as if plays, paintings, movies, and art in general should be like a newspaper–just reporting facts, as if his own lousy newspaper reports facts.
