To paraphrase

"[The NYT] has had a front-page piece rubbishing the Catholic Church as a nest of molesters every day for some time, especially since Sharon invaded Ramallah ... a preemptive strike against papal criticism of Israel's actions, and also to shift attention away from the blood-stained molestations of the adherents of one of the other monotheistic religions"

as

"a Jewish anti-Catholic plot"

is at best a bit tendentious, for those so eager to have Cockburn bad-form by generalizing about "the Jews." "Smear" about covers it. --CGE
