  • William Buckley, a renowned debater and political commentator, discusses the Jewish Defence League's justifications for violence against the Soviet Union. He views the current situation as the most significant assault on the human spirit in history and criticizes anti-communist sentiment, arguing that mental and cultural genocide should be viewed as murder. Buckley also explores the potential of presenting dog droppings to the UN Security Council.

      @@fifthbusiness1678 No, I meant to write "people intellectually having conversations on television". It might sound odd to you, but grammatically it's correct. A stative verb such as intellectually, following the collective noun such as People, is a high english we use here in England, which, again, I'm being presumptive in saying so, might sound odd outside My country. Thank you for asking.

    Mr Buckley once said over the years he had several appearances on this show and Johnny Carson's, yet scarcely a trace can be found on YT in either case.

      Buckley is very articulate. But his facts aren't solid. Especially when he speaks to real historians. Look at how Chomsky washed him up on his own show and panel.

    "William F. Buckley has a knack of making you his ally."
    Cf. Sir Roger Scruton [to laughter and applause, after his interlocutor in a televised talk, a left-activist academic, was left with little choice but to grudgingly concede his series of points]: "I get this all the time. People say _I'm in danger of agreeing with you."_

    It's great to hear what the Rabbi said about being anti-communist given how many people were afraid of being anti-communist after the McCarthy era and given what Nixon started with the Chinese which never made sense to me and in hindsight was clearly wrong, has been and is causing many problems for the West

    Dick Cavett, best, most generous, balanced interviewer of all time. You should come back on TV.
    Of course WFB was such a prominent thought leader of the time, and Rush had some stories as well about this man. (Good timing on this drop as well)

    Buckley's wit and rhetoric are so dense and mesmerizing that -even without the clipboard- it's difficult to imagine anyone even managing a reply. And who's the guy who said "Looks like he just got up?"

      I wondered the same and assumed it was 72 or earlier, as I know Nixon was still in office when I was born (Feb of 72). I believe one of them also mentioned the upcoming mid-70s as well. Fascinating conversation to watch and still relatable today.
