"Was there a good reason to resurrect this putrescent corpse?"

I'm not sure, but following Bobads link led me to something I found interesting regarding issues around Israel, freedom of speech and the media.

I'd be interested to know whether or not the allegation I cited in response to Bobads 'CiF Watch' post that:
"pro-Israel lobbyists" have repeatedly attempted to "force the removal of [Muslim] writers" from the Guardian's 'Comment is Free' website,

is in fact true?
