<<<[quote Teribus]"Whatever Israel does, whatever resolutions it ignores, whatever atrocities it visits on its neighbours in Lebanon and Gaza, including the littering of the countryside with hundreds of thousands of cluster bomblets and blitzing schools with white phosphorus and standing by calmly whilst its attack-dogs slaughter hundreds in refugee camps, no matter how much of the finest land it steals for settlements, it faces no more than the mildest tut-tutting from its western backers. No threat of sanctions, no conditionality on its military aid. So there is nothing at stake for Israel. Well, actually, yes there is. The security of its own people, who, one fine day, will see that their blinkered leaders can't get away forever with the Orwellian lie that the enemy is always without, all too easy to demonise."

Emotive twaddle if Israel wasn't threatened and attacked none of the above would have occurred.[/unquote]>>>

So, minnow of the lazy one-liner, would you care to separate out from the above for me which bits you regard as the lies and the dissembling? I'll admit that the "one fine day" bit is my fervent hope, but all the rest is factual. One fine day we'll see something from you that has actual substance, as opposed to a "yeah, me too, fellow backwoodsman" or a huge quote from somewhere else with little or no input from you, or a single-sentence "you're wrong, you Israel-hater, and you're a prick".

You lazy git.
