What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Joseph Schweitzer ? The plane was manned by Marine Capt. Richard Ashby  a 30-year-old on his final training flight before promotion to fighter pilot  and Capt.  Joseph Schweitzer   a navigator with a decade of flight experience. Capt. William Raney and Capt. Chandler Seagraves  electronic-warfare officers  were in the back seats.
During the flight   Schweitzer  borrowed Ashbyâs handheld videocamera to record  his  swan songâ his  last aerial navigation as a Marine Corps pilot before  he  left the military.  Schweitzer  testified that  he  had intended to show the video to  his  kids someday.
The plane lost contact with ground radar at 3:06 p.m. due to its low altitude  and  Schweitzer  testified that the video showed  him  smiling right up until 3:12 p.m.  when the plane hit the gondola cable.
After hitting the cable  the pilots saw the gondola fall but continued their flight. They landed the damaged Prowler safely at a NATO base in Aviano  in northern Italy. Court documents show that as Raney and Seagraves got off the plane   Schweitzer  and Ashby remained behind  took the borrowed camcorder videotape of the flight  then replaced it with a blank tape.
As  Schweitzer  and Ashby walked to the mess hall a few days after the accident  they asked Seagravesâ advice on handling questions about the videotape  according to court documents. Seagraves testified that he counseled the pilots to âget rid of the videotape. If  it  were mine  I would get rid of  it .â
Court documents show that Ashby gave  Schweitzer  the videotape  and  Schweitzer  took  it  outside behind a bar and threw  it  into a bonfire  despite âknowing that Italian and United States military criminal investigators would have wanted to view  it  â according to  his  testimony (PDF).
â Get rid of the videotape. If  it  were mine  I would get rid of  it . â â Capt. Chandler Seagraves in court testimony
Initially  all four men were charged with crimes and Ashby  who had been at the controls  faced a total of more than 200 years in a military prison.  Schweitzer  and Ashby were recommended for general court-martial at Camp Lejeune on 20 counts of involuntary manslaughter and negligent homicide. Italian authorities did not have jurisdiction to formally charge the crew members under NATO treaty rules.
The planeâs pilot and navigator  Ashby and Schweitzer  were court-martialed again in May 1999 on charges of obstructing justice by destroying the videotape recorded during the flight. Guilty verdicts pushed Ashby and  Schweitzer  out of the Marine Corps  and Ashby served four months of a six-month term in military prison before his release on good behavior.
Ashby and  Schweitzer  maintained that they had seen neither the new directives nor the updated government maps. Seagraves and Raney testified that the altitude gauge did not trigger after the plane entered the Cermis valley  even though Ashby  the pilot  had set the indicator to go off when they dropped below 800 feet  according to the Associated Press.
The investigationâs partially redacted pages blamed the Marine pilots for the tragedy and advised the United States to take full responsibility for paying restitution to the victimsâ families  La Stampa reported. The paper added that investigators found compelling evidence refuting the crew membersâ claims regarding old maps and missed flight directives that eventually led to  Schweitzer  and Ashbyâs acquittal on the most severe charges.
The Daily Beast interviewed retired Maj. Raney and then-Capt.  Schweitzer about the La Stampa  claims. Both crew members denied having seen or read the new directives or maps marking the location of the cable-car lines.
âNo   we  absolutely did not have charts with the cables marked on them â Raney said. âThe Italians had the cables marked on their maps  but  we  did notâ¦ and there was a two-star [general] who flat out lied about it in a press conference.
âYou know  this is a situation that I like to call the unbelievable  unimaginable  unexpected moments that training just canât prepare you for â  Schweitzer  said. âI got rid of the tape  not because of the flight  but because that was my worst nightmareâ¦ I didnât want to look at my smiling face while flying a low-altitude flight  which was something I loved to doâand then all of a sudden  tragedy.â
In a 2015 email to The Daily Beast via a public-affairs spokesperson   he  wrote that the Cavalese cable-car incident has been fully investigated  but  he  also offered  his  condolences.
âI would like to extend my heartfelt sympathies to everyone affected by this tragedy â  he  wrote.

What is the sentiment of the following document towards the entity Steve Bannon Steve ? As Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and his allies at the Senate Leadership Fund and elsewhere devolve into using failed tactics employed in 2016 by Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton  the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA) and the Republican Jewish Coalition (RJC) are hammering back at McConnell and his cronies. McConnell’s Senate Leadership Fund has  just like Hillary Clinton did  falsely alleged that  Bannon  is anti-Semitic.
The Senate Leadership Fund  in a move that only hurts Sen. Dean Heller (R-NV) even more than the pro-amnesty anti-Trump incumbent is hurting alread   on Thursday tweeted an attack against  Bannon :
Here’s another pledge for @DannyTarkanian to sign backing  Bannon  over ex-wife charges. #NVSen pic.twitter.com/qIHE8SrAJL — Senate Ldshp Fund (@Senate_Fund) October 25  2017
In a comment to The Hill newspaper  Holmes falsely alleged  Bannon  is a “white supremacist.”
“In 2018 we ought to revisit this question and find out if these people are still happy to be associated with  Bannon  ” Holmes said. “When you’re facing voters  I’d take one of the most successful majority leaders in history over a white supremacist any day.”
Matt Brooks  the director of the Republican Jewish Coalition  said that  while his group does support Heller  McConnell and his cronies are wrong to make this false allegation against  Bannon .
“We defended  him  [ Bannon ] aggressively when  he  faced these accusations from the left  and I’ll defend  him  when  he  faces these accusations from the right ” Brooks said  per the Jewish Telegraphic Agency news organization  adding: “Dean Heller is a perfect example where  Bannon  and the RJC are on different sides  but I will absolutely defend  Bannon  — he is not anti-Semitic.”
ZOA does not invite anti-Semites to our events.  Steve Bannon  is the furthest thing from an anti-Semite  contrary to McConnell and Holmes’s shameful lies.  Steve  is a proud friend of the Jewish people and the Jewish State of Israel. I know and have worked closely with  Steve Bannon . I am appalled by these shameful attempts to smear  Bannon ’s character and integrity by promoting false allegations about  Bannon ’s views on Jews and Israel. This is clearly being done because of policy differences between Senator McConnell and  Bannon .
 He  then quotes Dershowitz  a liberal Harvard professor  who says it is not “legitimate” or accurate to make such accusations against  Bannon .
“It’s not legitimate to call [ Bannon ] an anti-Semite because you disagree with his policies ” Dershowitz said  per Klein’s ZOA release. “The evidence suggests that  Mr. Bannon  has very good relationships with individual Jews and is supportive of Israel. I’ve seen no evidence of personal anti-Semitism on the part of  Bannon .”
Klein also quotes Home Depot founder Bernie Marcus  a major GOP donor  as saying the attacks against  Bannon  are a disgrace. “I have known  Steve  to be a passionate supporter of Israel ” the ZOA release quotes Marcus as saying  adding: “What is being done to  Steve  is a shonda [disgrace].”
The release from ZOA continues by quoting more people backing up  Bannon :
The Anti-Defamation League acknowledged that it has found no written or verbal statements made by  Bannon  that were anti-Semitic. Liberal columnist and former editor of the Forward  J.J. Goldberg  recently wrote about these charges against  Bannon   “There’s no evidence. The evidence that’s tossed around doesn’t hold up. The more we cry anti-Semitism when it’s not real  the more likely we won’t believe when the danger is real.” Vanity Fair reported that  Bannon  valiantly fought to move the U.S. Embassy to Jerusalem  and refused to attend a meeting with Palestinian-Arab leader Mahmoud Abbas  a Jew-hating  Israel-hating terrorist.  Bannon  is quoted as saying  “I’m not going to breathe the same air as that terrorist.”
The release from ZOA concludes by again praising  Bannon  and saying the organization is proud to have  him  at the group’s annual dinner in New York City on Nov. 12. Klein said:
 Steve  has helped ZOA and our battles against anti-Semitism on college campuses and has invited me  a Jew and a Zionist  to be a regular columnist at his Breitbart News. Anti-Semites don’t provide Morton Klein with a platform. We are proud and fortunate to have  Steve Bannon  on our side fighting for Israel and against anti-Semitism. And we’re honored that  he  will be a speaker at ZOA’s 2017 Gala where  he  will be introducing Dr. Miriam and Sheldon Adelson  the greatest pro-Jewish Zionists on the face of the planet.
It remains to be seen if Holmes and Senate Leadership Fund and McConnell will withdraw their false attacks against  Bannon   or if they will further infuriate Jewish Republicans including major GOP donors like Adelson and Marcus–and further jeopardize more incumbents like Heller.
