The difference is that for a good while the Israeli left started believing them. That's how we ended up with an internationally known terrorist group being legitimated as a political body that is even referred to as "moderate." <br /><br />Luckily, the evacuation of Gush Katif, and the literal fallout, has woken a lot of lefty Israelis.Shtueyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05611947223509549389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7764151925164944873.post-57224259561976343502009-08-05T23:50:25.914-04:002009-08-05T23:50:25.914-04:00I watched all 3 Wallace-Ebban videos.

It's politically correct to criticize Israel...the "Israelis" are doing this, the "Israelis" are doing that. Truth is that if you oppose the notion that the Jewish nation is entitled to exist in its historic national home, from which it has never truly been separated, you're a racist. Sesay's Jew hate is palpable. She ought to do a show with Pat Buchanan.<br /><br />Mawm, Eban was such a force. His intellect went in every direction, and he was so eloquent. I agree, next to him, Wallace looks like a chump. Israel has lacked such an articulate, and powerful voice like his for a long time. Regev is no Eban, but he stood his ground, made his case, and made no apologies for it.<br /><br />Had the Israelis simply sent the police or the army to throw these people out without cause, without any legal basis, then I could understand. But this was a well examined, well adjudicated case. What people resent here is that Jews are asserting their sovereignty. The world hated us when we were weak, and they hate us now that we are back in our land and defend ourselves. There have been things that Israel has done which it has had to deal with, has had to say, "our bad." Promulgating the decisions of its courts, exerting its sovereignty is not one of them.<br /><br />For books I would recommend his self-titled autobiography, and Heritage: Civilization and the Jews. This was the book published in conjunction with the PBS series he did back in the 80's.Shtueyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05611947223509549389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7764151925164944873.post-31049212569913403172009-08-05T18:18:59.231-04:002009-08-05T18:18:59.231-04:00Thanks for posting the Abba Eban interview. What ...Thanks for posting the Abba Eban interview. What a genius! Wallace seems like such an idiot next to him. <br />I want to read a book of his. Do you have any suggestions?<br /><br />This video also makes me think of what we hav lost in the current big media pipeline. The networks would never allow discussion this meaningful on the air anymore.<br /><br />Also, its funny to see Mike Wallace suddenly start explaining what's so great about his Parliament cigarettes. "There are over 30,000 traps"..." in the recessed filter".Mawmnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7764151925164944873.post-10774717712124266572009-08-05T15:09:15.077-04:002009-08-05T15:09:15.077-04:00Thanks for posting that Regev video.

I just wish Regev had stated that the homes had always been owned by Jews who retained title after Jordan barged in in 1948. The media moron was trying to make out like it was a Jewish conspiracy to steal Palestinian land. Of course, it had never been any such thing.Ronnoreply@blogger.com
