COMMENT: Ear­li­er this month, The New York Times edi­to­ri­al­ized about the release from cus­tody of Daniel Pearl’s mur­der­ers, includ­ing Omar Sheikh.

Sad­ly, but pre­dictably miss­ing from that edi­to­r­i­al, as with oth­er sto­ries in The Gray Lady deal­ing with 9/11 and its after­math, is dis­cus­sion of the pro­found Nazi con­nec­tions to that sig­na­ture event.

We cov­ered this top­ic at great length in FTR #456.

Wall Street Jour­nal reporter Daniel Pearl’s kid­nap­per and killer–Omar Sheikh–appears to have been heav­i­ly influ­enced by Nazi ide­ol­o­gy while wag­ing jihad in the Balka­ns.
