An
item on R4 Todas programme on the establishment of the Israeli Ariel university on
Palestinian territory – that's the Palestinian territory that the
world acknowledges is Palestinian - brought variations on a theme.
In
a rather elegant non sequitur, someone they'd found to defend Error
Israel, there are plenty willing, started at the complaint and came
out towards the end of his sentence asking how anyone could suggest
that Jewish people are not associated with the area.
The
interviewer did not ask him what the hell he was talking about,;probably too scared he'd be accused of being in favour of the
holocaust
and
another... in my own words “Why are people complaining about what
we do in the occupied territories when they should be complaining
about what is happening in Syria?”
The
interviewer did not say that we care about that too but that maybe
the problem in Syria is the same as the problem in Palestine – a
few people making exceptionalist racist claims
If
he had, there might have been a scream: you see! everyone hates us
and
so it continues.

and
later Lord Freud – just say that to yourself (Lord... Freud...) and
feel the absurdity in your veins
Lord
Freud assured as or seemed to that transitional arrangements for malingerers like
the disabled would just go on and on
That's
why they're called transitional I suppose
But
of course the interviewer didn't ask about that
I
mean, he is a Lord

I
wonder how Jimmy Savile got away with it
