In 1990 precisely one man with a national platform called out the Israeli role in pushing the US into attacking Iraq: Pat Buchanan. He spoke of it just a few times and the response was a massive jew swarm attack that almost destroyed his career. This had two effects. First, it forced Buchanan to tread very lightly on the topic. But more importantly it served to warn everyone else to keep their mouths shut, which they did. Joe Sobran was not a media figure, so he doesn't count. Of course he was entirely destroyed and died in poverty as a result.
Compare to today when the most popular right wing pundit - Tucker - is calling out the Israelis daily and is impossible to cancel short of killing him.
What a difference the internet makes.
