Default Extremist Employees - Why is Chan Lying?

Michael C. Moynihan | December 14, 2010

Last week, I wrote that the widely-linked article positing that the
CIA was behind a Swedish woman’s accusation of rape against Julian
Assange was authored by a Russian-born, Swedish-domiciled, multi-
aliased anti-Semite and Holocaust denier currently writing under the
name “Israel Shamir,” a.k.a. Adam Ermash or Jöran Jermas. The broader
point had little to do with the efficacy or morality of WikiLeaks—
there are plenty of debates available on the narrower issue of
government transparency; this isn’t intended to be one of them—but was
concerned with how ideology and confirmation bias (WikiLeaks is a good
thing, therefore Assange must be defended, and the CIA has done bad
stuff in the past so—cui bono?—Assange’s accuser must be a Langley
asset) can lead mainstream media figures into the fever swamps of
Internet conspiracy theory.


Israel Shamir is a well spoken Israeli who criticizes some official
policy whic apparently got him on Moynihan's **** list. Or are there 2
of them?
