Howard Jacobson, 6 Oct Observer.
Here's a paragraph in which he 'explains' the motives of marchers for Palestine and writers, acting as they do not in reaction to current Israeli actions but to centuries of hatred. Hell's teeth !
"Hence the hurt, the anger and the fear that Jewish people have been experiencing in the year since Hamas’s barbaric massacre of Israelis on 7 October and the no less barbaric denials, not to mention celebrations of it, as night after night our televisions have told the story of the war in Gaza through the death of Palestinian children. Night after night, a recital of the numbers dead. Night after night, the unbearable footage of their parents’ agony. The savagery of war. The savagery of the Israeli onslaught. But for many, writing or marching against Israeli action, the savagery of the Jews as told for hundreds of years in literature and art and church sermons."
I've missed that "night after night" witnessing the devastation in Gaza. Not on my MSM, and probably not on his. If we did, the numbers in the street would be tenfold what they are now.
EVERY event in this effort by Israel to eliminate all non-jews from whatever territory they can steal, is massaged into a reality that turns it into a justification. The Goddamn U.S.A. , Germany, France are buying it as if they are brain dead.
