"PS: I assume you believe that the Gatestone Institute is a disinterested outfit with no agenda?"

Don't ass-u-me. Do you not believe that every site on the internet or every news source or interest group has an agenda? Just like the posters on this site, including you, have an agenda. It's a sign of intelligence to be able to evaluate information independently of the source. Those who become obsessed with the source at the expense of the value of the information therein are showing themselves to be closed minded.
