Excerpt from a speech by former Republican Congressman Paul N. “Pete” McCloskey, Jr. on "Israel, the Anti Defamation League and Free Speech." McCloskey has had a long history of service to the United States: as a U.S. Marine, an environmentalist, and an opponent to unnecessary wars. McCloskey was born and raised in California, graduating from Stanford University. During Korean War service with the Marine Corps, he earned the Navy Cross, the Silver Star and two Purple Hearts.
From 1967 to 1983 he served as a U.S. congressman. He was co-chairman of the First Earth Day, 1970. He was an early opponent of American involvement in the Vietnam War, and the first Republican in Congress to call for the impeachment of President Nixon. In 1972 he was an unsuccessful candidate for the Republican party presidential nomination.

The video above is from a speech he gave in 2000 at a conference for the Institute of Historical Review. By the 1980s the ADL’s main purpose was no longer to try to stop anti-Semitism and bigotry, but instead to discredit any voice that was hostile to the policies of Israel – and not only to discredit people who spoke out against Israel, but to deny them a forum. McCloskey describes the ADL's work in spying on Americans.
