re: #329 Gus 802

On the one hand you have the Nixon known for his anti-Semitic tirades and listing of Jews in the Department of Labor; listing of big Jewish donors; and siding with Billy Graham regarding Jews in the US: “This [Jewish] stranglehold has got to be broken or the country’s going down the drain.” Nixon, apparently delighted, asks, “You believe that?” Graham replies, “Yes, sir.” Nixon replies: “Oh, boy. So do I. I can’t ever say that but I believe it.” But then he is credited with saving Israel in the Yom Kippur War.

Nixon was very much “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde”.
