"Don, does Jim claim that he has been persuaded by Pravda,"
No he doesn't - he has been persuaded by all the evidence of all the massacres since the establishment of the State of Israel, even before the clearence of the Palestinian villages as the British troops left - I suggest anybody with any doubt googles Israeli atrocities - national newspapers, Channel 4 news, BBC reports, photographs, films inteviews with both Israelis and Palastinians - all inhumanity is there.
Comments from a UN special advisor to be going on with:

You really are shitty pair of atrocity apologists and racists - wonder which of you is going to have the honour of changing your name to David Irving.
Israel's terrorism is now a matter of history, it's published and it's filmed, it has been investigated by officially set up committees - it is on record.
Keith seems to have decided that the safest way is to go is to concentrate on two issues - chemical weapons and the Shatila/Sabra massacres - again a matter of history.
"& before he comes back yet again with what he sees as their attempted disclaimers about 'warning us not to interpret their comments as racially based'"
If you have any evidence of my attacking anything other than Israeli policy, please produce it.
Rings a bit hollow from somebody who has defended as non racist the writing off of the entire male population of a whole cultural group as cultural perverts - the only "evidence" offered being the opinions of a handful of politicicians, none of whom have made anything near the "cultural implant" claim that has been disowned, denied and blamed on others by its real creator.
"Not 'mine' at all, but that of Alibhai-Brown, Straw,and two Pakistani community leaders & spokesmen."
Seems that you're further down Keith's road than was at first apparent - one more teetering step and you'll be right out of the closet.
Have a good day - I'm off to the clean wholesome air of the funeral of a great man.
