It doesn't help that the media, particularly right-wing media, seemed to publish a "WMDs FOUND IN IRAQ" article every time somebody found a rusted out bomb in a forgotten bunker in the desert that maybe had some degraded sarin in it. The seed was planted before the war and they kept it fertilized.

part of the reason people don't want the history of this period taught or understood is to make this illegible to people. it's easy to swallow thought ending cliches about which venerated figure was a "man of their times" if you remain studiously unaware of what their times actually were

If your default stance is that any Jewish person who raises any general concern about antisemitism in Trump’s America (especially in contexts that make no mention at all of Israel) can’t be trusted & should be skeptically viewed as a potential Zionist 5th column…maybe you should reflect on that.
