January 24, 2011
Admittedly, there are some cool pictures in the Peretz profile.(NYT Magazine)
• Even as the Palestinian Authority formally rejects the Palestine Papers’ validity, it is also looking into who may have sold and/or leaked them. Former Fatah security commander and rival of the current leadership Muhammad Dahlan is suspected. [JPost]
• Ad copywriter Phyllis K. Robinson died at 89. She came up with the immortal slogan, “You don’t have to be Jewish to love Levy’s Real Jewish Rye.” [The Awl]
• The world asked for another profile of Marty Peretz in winter (and in Israel), and the call was answered. [NYT Magazine]
• An interesting take on the Palestine Papers from Matt Duss. [Wonk Room]
