Loving Hamas hating Jews

I'm putting the above for reference. It's a collection of articles, pro-Hamas, anti-Israel, anti-Jew, by John Menadue, now 90, in his time a senior Aussie bureaucrat that I kinda knew, via my then senior partner, Steve FitzGerald, both old time Aussie Labor Party luvvies. 

John seemed a nice and reasonable guy when I knew him. He swung pretty far left over the years, as I occasionally dipped into his rawwther pretentiously named "Pearls and Irritations". Which tended to give me the toe-curls and irritations. 

I've read a number of the essays in the e-book above. For now I'm just posting it. If you're convinced by these essays, and have been sitting on the fence till now, well heaven help you. 

Still... I'll get back to it in due course. It does need a counter. 

For now, I'll just say that I'm not on the fence. I'm very much on the side of Israel in the current war in Gaza, along the lines of Brendan O'Neil, here. And I find much to fault in the collection. So much fault that I'll need time to sort it all out.
