	Unclaimed Territory - by Glenn Greenwald: The Meaning of Marty Peretz
		To defend Peretz, Chait focuses on one post in which Peretz wrote that there could never be a "Muslim Martin Luther King" because "they'd break his windows.
		But Peretz, I guess to his credit, has more courage than people like Charles Johnson, in the sense that he barely bothers to hide, and at times clearly expresses, his view that Arabs and Muslims are generally and irreversibly primitive and violent.
		Peretz might express these sentiments a bit more nakedly than most others who share them, but his views are by no means unique to him.

	Martin Peretz - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In 1995, Peretz made headlines when he successfully pressured Vice President Al Gore to rescind his offer to Harvard historian and Tennessee writer Richard Marius to be a White House speechwriter.
		Peretz accused Marius of anti-Semitism, citing a 1992 book review in which Marius compared the tactics of the Israeli secret police searching for Palestinian terrorists in the occupied territories to the Nazi Gestapo in occupied Europe during World War II.
		In the movie Shattered Glass, which portrays the unmasking of writer Stephen Glass' serial fabrications in the pages of The New Republic, Peretz was presented as a capricious figure who regularly fired his top editors and who once degraded the magazine's staff by ordering them to circle every comma in an issue of the magazine.

		Peretz has a lot to say; the article is sixteen paragraphs and 2,350 words long, which means it’s either very comprehensive or very evasive in its examination of the Liberal condition.
		Peretz laments the demise of Niebuhr, but lamely pretends that the loss of interest in Liberal politics is due to the unreasonable optimism of Liberals.
		Peretz claims Capitalism “is demoralizing and punishing.” That is incredibly asinine, to attack the only system which allows an individual or group to succeed by the merit of their own work.

		Peretz, who has been a longtime Democratic supporter and used to be a hero to some of these people, has changed with events.
		Peretz made The New Republic into the most influential publication in Washington and was one of the main forces behind the development of the DLC or centrist wing of the party.

		Peretz in his 01/10/03 spiel, also relied on a quote from the famed English statesman, Edmund Burke, to support his Palestinian bashing theme.
		Peretz claimed Mubarak was too much influenced by "Cairo's rent-a-mob populace." The occupied territories were glossed over as the "disputed territories" by the New Republic's guru.

		Peretz, in an interview with Salon, portrayed Kelly's editorial policies as "wacko." Explaining his decision to fire Kelly, Peretz, a close friend of Vice President Gore, said he had been grown increasingly uncomfortable with Kelly's relentlessly savage criticism of the Clinton administration in the magazine's TRB column.
		Peretz said that in the nine months that Kelly served as editor, more than half of his columns "viewed the Clinton adminstration through the narrow filter of the fundraising scandals...
		Peretz said that Leon Wieseltier, the magazine's literary editor and a close confidant of Kelly's, was not consulted on the decision to fire Kelly, suggesting his days at the magazine also may be numbered.

		Peretz and others seem to think that they have some kind of monopoly in drawing on metaphors that related to German war crimes in the mid-part of last century, particularly when it comes to the Holocaust and to Jewish issues.
		Martin Peretz, to my knowledge, has engaged in little to no self-scrutiny about the role that his own influential commentary had on the buildup to the Iraq War.
		The ugliest allegation in Peretz's screed is that George Soros was a Nazi collaborator.

		As for the rest, there's actually no arguing the fact that the "American left" is better against terrorism than the right.
		Remember, Radosh once wrote that "America is rent by two cultures," the "traditionalists" and "self-described progressives steeped in existential depravity." I'm sure, considering that passage, that the book is, as Peretz writes, wise and honest.
		And, hey, this past actually deals with people who are members of the goddamn Republican party, not just people who are vaguely on the same side of the left/right divide.

	PERRspectives Blog: Martin Peretz: The New Republican
		In the April 11th issue of The New Republic, Martin Peretz (“The Politics of Churlishness”) takes liberals to task for what he sees as their inability to show even grudging respect for President Bush’s recent successes in the Middle East.
		Peretz also accepts at face value George Bush’s 2004 campaign statement that the United States was the victim of “catastrophic success” in Iraq.
		In Iraq, Peretz’s benevolent angel took the form of Ayatollah Al-Sistani, whose 2004 insistence on direct elections ultimately provided the legitimacy for the January 2005 voting.

	The perpetually perfervid Peretz. - By Jack Shafer - Slate Magazine
		Peretz's spin on the Middle East has not been suppressed: It's had a thorough airing in the New Republic, which he bought and revived in 1974 with his heiress wife's millions.
		Peretz may be a relentless self-promoter, but at least he's honest about it, confiding in his New Republic column that he leaned on NPR News Veep Bill Buzenberg for just a little mike (to no avail) and that he told PBS's Jim Lehrer he wouldn't turn down a date on The MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour, either.
		In "Blacklisted," Peretz makes his final pitch for access to the public airwaves: "Public radio and television give overwhelming preference to enthusiasts for Yassir Arafat and his ilk," he writes, banging the moral-equivalence gong.

		Peretz may be using it as a stand-in for millenarian, but if so, he's not spending his money wisely by applying it to Muslims.
		Perhaps Peretz went with ultramontane this week because he got a two-for-one discount on it three years ago, when he wrote his Feb. 3, 2003, diarist ("Manque"), and the spare was spoiling in his refrigerator.
