"Yes Jim, and not a mention of religion."
Stop superifialising the issue to score points Keith and address what has just been put in front of you.

"Tu quoque re Israel, eh Jim?"
Sorry Mike - my Secondary Modern education didn't get me that far.
I don't recall anybody introducing Israel into this topic other than to make a comparison on how political stunt-pulling, such as the arrest of Adams, can inflame, and even sabotage a delicate situation - seems a perfectly valid and up-to-the-minute comparison to make - unless you happen to be a supporter of those who would set out to deliberately sabotage peace negotiations, of course.
