"A Palestinian Mandela"?
"If there ever was a Palestinian Mandela, their greatest threat was not Israel, but other Palestinians, along with surrounding despotic regimes that patronised the most fanatical and violent among them. ... "The history is there for anyone not too lazy, or too ideologically committed, to see. What may [help understanding here] is to view the PLO and Hamas as a dictatorship first ... and a resistance movement a distant second. When you’re in the business of war ... what use do you have for peace? Or peacemakers? They’d be akin to inviting cockroaches into your restaurant."
We welcome thoughtful disagreement. But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me. PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
