Voices on Israel


Some of the commenters I read and watch, on issues Middle East, with focus on Israel and the Gaza situation. 

I’m sure that if you look them up on Wikipedia, a good bunch of them will be deemed to be, at least, “conservative” or even “far-right”. I don’t mind. I follow them for good analysis. 

Israel lives in a region where if you’re a feel-good Leftie you’re going to be gobbled up for lunch, dinner and tea. If it’s Ramadan, you’re going to be Iftar. 

You have to be Right, because you have to be tough to survive. That’s what a lot of the commenters, sitting in their cabins in the Catskills, or their mansions on Martha’s Vineyard, don’t understand. Even people like the sometimes revered Seymour Hersh. Who has a rotten take, IMO, in his latest post on the Kam-Don debate.
