The President Should Stop Questioning the Motivations of Opponents of the Iran Deal

by Alan M. Dershowitz  •  August 17, 2015 at 5:00 pm
A number of prominent Jewish organizations and publications, as well as some media outlets, have sharply criticized the manner in which the Obama administration has gone about defending the Iran nuclear agreement by attacking its critics.
Tablet Magazine accused certain proponents of the agreement of using "Jew-baiting and other blatant and retrograde forms of racial and ethnic prejudice" such as "[a]ccusing senators and congressmen... of being agents of a foreign power..." to smear their opponents. Similarly, Abraham Foxman, the former director of the Anti-Defamation League, attacked President Obama for fueling the anti-Semitic stereotype of Jews as warmongers. Rabbi Abraham Cooper of the Simon Wiesenthal Center also attacked the administration for bullying opponents of the deal with the "crock of dual loyalty."
