I am fairly certain that Tikkun has published Horowitz before, I 
think as part of a discussion of the 1991 Gulf War.  As I recall, he said
something such as "I'm glad Michael Lerner has come to realize the value of 
the armed forces" and Lerner replied "not so fast".  Just from memory, not
actual quotes.   I can't stand Lerner, and I stopped reading Tikkun after
subscribing to it for a few years when it first started.   But I've been
surprised glancing at it on the newstand over the last year or so that
there have been quite a few articles that looked very interesting and 
beyond the usual "we must save the soul of Israel" type thing that is
so irritating.
