Thread Name: BS: Small hope for Israel/Palestine
Subject: RE: BS: Small hope for Israel/Palestine
Game over with you morons Keith
Israel once again has attempted to introduce ethnic cleansing laws onto their statute books and for the second time, has been forced to withdraw them due to world-wide outrage and U.N. pressure - even the U.S. refused to cross the line this time
You supported their proposals and have not just been left with egg on your face, but are now totally egg-bound.
You fascist tendencies have been obvious for a long time now:
Your defending the use of chemical sprays and water cannon on Bedouin settlements
Your supporting the moving of Bedouin communities onto toxic sites.
Your defence of Israel's part in the massacre of thousands of unarmed refugees - men women and children alike   
Your support for wartime Fascism at the time the Jews were being herded into extermination camps by describing their viciously Anti-Semitic outpourings and their moves to form a provisional Government "when Herr Hitler wins" as "harmless"   
Your describing Pakistanis as implanted potential perverts
Your support for Assad by proposing that he be supplied with riot equipment to neutalise opposition to his regime and herd the ringleaders into his torture chambers.
Your defending the selling of sniper bullets probably used to traine the Homs snipers and chemicals that were almost certainly helpful to his building up his massive chemical weapon stockpile.
Your openly supporting the outpourings of an extremist racist site without either examining it or explaining your support except "I remember the church attack" - nothing more substantial than that to justify 1,000 claims by these scum.
Your support for the Dale Farm evictions, your denial of researched evidence of the no-Traveller signs, your suggestion that Governments are entitled to move Travellers about like chess pieces
Plenty more - but that'll do for now.
All this is a matter of Mudcat record, but please, please, please deny anything or all of it again and give me an opportunity to put it up again.
You are a sad-sick individual, Boo-Boo is a little clown only good for light relief.
I have to admit, I really don't understand Mike's part in all this.
Both he and I have a passion for and have been involved in folk-song for large parts of our lives.
Both of us are fully aware of the contribution Travellers have made to out enjoyment and understanding of those songs - Jeannie Roberts, The Stewarts, Duncan Williamson, Johnny Doran, John Doherty, Phoebe, Jasper and Levi Smith - all of those wonderful people who gave us our songs and music.   
In the thirty odd years Pat and I worked with Travellers, we were told hundreds of times of the treatment they received at the hands of the uncaring and antagonistic British and Irish establishments - their being treated as non-people, as sub humans, harassed and persecuted.
In spite of all this, on the topic of Israel's attempting to ghettoise entire ethnic Travelling communities (and finally being forced to abandon those attempts by world pressure) Mike chooses to once again join you in your sordid and vicious campaigns.
I neither understands how he reconciles that support, either from a musical point of view or a personal one
Ah well
We really have nothing to say to each other about anything Mike
