Remember Mohamed Morsi, and the view from one of his advisers that, while statements of his against Jews might come well from the mouth of a Muslim Brotherhood official, it was different now that Morsi was Egypt's president? Functional anti-Semitism was my suggestion. That turns out to have been too optimistic. Morsi is reported to have said last week to a group of US senators:
I think we all know that the media in the United States has made a big deal of this and we know the media of the United States is controlled by certain forces and they don't view me favorably...
Maybe by 'certain forces' he meant to refer to people quite unknown to you and me. On the other hand, maybe the headline on this piece is there or thereabouts. (Thanks: JA.)
