Joseph Sobran (born February 23, 1946, Michigan) is a former writer for the National Review notable for being fired for what William F. Buckley considered to be anti-semitism.
After graduating from college with a major in English and a few years of teaching, Sobran started working at William F. Buckley Jr's National Review magazine in 1972. He stayed 21 years, 18 of them as senior editor. Following his openly incendiary comments about Jews after Israel's invasion of Lebanon, he was fired from the National Review and accused of being an anti-Semite by Buckley, Norman Podhoretz, and others.
He has since then written an article entitled "Jewish Power" in the Journal of Historical Review which is published by the Institute for Historical Review, a think tank which promotes Holocaust revisionism. He has also participated in annual conferences of the Institute. Sobran's association with the Institute for Historical Review has cost him the friendship of many people on the neoconservative intellectual right.
Joseph Sobran has written, "The 9/11 attacks would never have occurred except for the U.S. Government's Middle East policies, which are pretty much dictated by the Jewish-Zionist powers that be in the United States. The Zionists boast privately of their power, but they don't want the gentiles talking about it."
In 2002, Joseph Sobran went from identifying as a paleoconservative to advocacy of a libertarian anarchocapitalism. In December 2002 he announced his philosophical and political shift to libertarian anarchism in Sobran's . In the article, he cited inspiration by libertarian theorist Murray Rothbard. Critics such as Tom Palmer have criticized LewRockwell.com for its association with Sobran.
Sobran is the author of a book about William Shakespeare in which he endorses the Oxfordian theory that Edward de Vere, Earl of Oxford, was the true author of the plays usually attributed to William Shakespeare of Stratford.
Sobran is the author of three books: Single Issues: Essays on the Crucial Social Questions (1983), Alias Shakespeare: Solving the Greatest Literary Mystery of All Time (1997), and Hustler: The Clinton Legacy (2000). He is also a regular contributor to the Roman Catholic newsweekly The Wanderer.
