Click here to peruse the recent articles<\/a>. They’re about the economy.<\/p>\n

They don’t talk about the longtime Pico-Robertson resident’s tax evasion and why he’s staying away from the United States.<\/p>\n

I suspect it will be a cold day in hell before any of the Jewish institutions who’ve profited from Lowy’s donations<\/a> or David Rubin<\/a>‘s send out emails calling for rallies outside their homes.<\/p>\n

The Peter Lowy tax evasion story has yet to be told in the pages of the Jewish Journal, which only contains content about him that is glowing<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Australian journalist Peter Ryan spoke this week with Peter and Steven Lowy<\/a>:<\/p>\n

PETER RYAN: Peter Lowy says US conditions might be tough but he believes that given Westfield’s market strength and $7-billion of available cash, the big deals will still come his way.<\/p>\n

PETER LOWY: They’re very strong retailers. They want to do business with very strong developers and so we’re seeing a flight towards us in that area, certainly from executives who are working in the industry. They want to be working for companies that are very strong and have a healthy profile going forward. <\/p>\n

From the retailers themselves they want to be doing business where they know who they’re doing business with going forward and they know when there’s a transaction that it’s going to be commercially honoured.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Peter Lowy has done his utmost to stay out of the news for the past nine months. I wonder why he’s chosen now to emerge? I can only speculate that he needs to see if he is still a pariah or if can once again show his face in polite society.<\/p>\n

American Jewish University, where Lowy is chair of the board, has not scrubbed his name from its website<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
