Douglas Murray: Who He?
Who is this person Douglas Murray, who suddenly seems to turn up so frequently on the BBC, even managing to pop up on Jeremy Vine’s Radio Two programme today to beat the drum of war against Iran? His most notable "achievement" is a book called Neoconservatism: Why we Need It, which manages to avoid entirely even the merest mention of Max Shachtman and the neocons’ Trotskyist roots! Why is the BBC, which has already turned The Moral Maze into Neocons’ Big Night Out, placating these people? And where does it even find them?
