I think you are right-this is a forgery, or at least some of the most inflammatory parts are. Sobran is anti-Israel, but he is not a moron- I can't imagine that he would commit stuff like that "plague-carriers" paragraph to print.

Which version do you have? I don't see anything about "plague-carriers" in the version at Sobran's site, or the reprints by the Michigan Neo-Nazi.

I don't have time to search for this again, but it was at the link given in one of the posts above- it is on Sobran's site, but you have to click on his email newsletter to read the whole thing. (May, 2002)

The Orthodox Jew, faithful to an ancient and rigorous tradition, commands respect. So, in a different way, does the nonobservant intellectual Jew, who greatly enriches the life of the mind in the modern West; he remains unobsessed by the Holocaust and skeptical of, even embarrassed by, Zionism. In some cases, both the Orthodox Jew and the unaffiliated intellectual Jew may be downright anti-Zionist.

The plague-carriers, so to speak, are the secularized, liberal, middlebrow Jews whose vulgarity sets the tone for American politics, public discourse, and popular culture. Some of them, like Steven Spielberg and Barbra Streisand, have real talent, of sorts; most of them are good at making money and aggressive in using it for their pet causes. Above all, they have a low genius for propaganda -- for shaping the popular mind and its characteristic platitudes.

It's fair to note he's refering positively only to the few Orthodox who deny Israel's right to exist, at this time, and the "unaffiliated" Jew (the ones who, when asked their religion, state none).

You need better glasses.
