Subject: RE: BS: New Israeli atrocity: attack on Gaza aid
Ed, I have come to the conclusion from the comments posted by some people that they don't actually bother to look up the actual links therefore a summary of some of the information may give an impression of the contents and the reference will enable them to check out the original

The extract that I chose from the advice by the Israeli Law firm specifically addressed your challenge that

"Only Jews can own land in Israel (Goyim can [i]lease[/i] land from the government for up to 49 years)".

was "not a fact...but propaganda often repeated in the past."


Sometimes several short extracts from longer articles serve to illustrate a particular issue which the links alone would not do or a particular point is contained in a much longer article that may be irrelevant to the specific discussion .
I am by no means the only poster who uses this form and rarely, unlike some others, post whole newspaper articles.

Joe Offer is the arbitrator of 'style' - but I take your point completely about lengthy posts and have strived to contain posts to one screen where ever possible in the past
As people in this thread have pointed out however the issues are complex.

now back to topic.......
