Subject: RE: BS: (UK) Whither the Labour Party
You see? Black and white. Teribus, would you like to define the whole history of the 20th century by its conflicts alone? Or does the humdrum, prosaic beat of everyday life, which actually occupies far more time than the conflicts, count for nothing? Well, at least you answered your own question. I thought for a second that you were presenting me with a real challenge, but then you went and spoiled your case with a fully-expected Islamophobic rant about the two organisations who are trying to run benighted territories whilst keeping Israel at bay. Yes they are nasty, yes they say horrid things about Jews, yes democracy is not in their souls, yes they have this bad habit of firing ramshackle rockets into Israel (we don't need to discuss comparative killing rates, do we...?). But they happen to be in charge and we do have a long history of propping up far worse people (your hero Maggie thought the WORLD of Pinochet!) So tell me. What you gonna do about them? Who would you put in their place? No, honestly, I really do want to know what your solution is!
