I like 'im, and as a dewd whose Jewish great-granddad scarpered from Germany to Canada, I find it extremely...galling how the anti-Jewish defamation league and various internal Israeli news networks have set the terms of the debate to: say anything against Israel and you're an anti-Semite. People talk about what a complicated, tangled web the modern world is, but I think in some regards it's actually fairly simple, and this so-called complexity is used to mask horrible acts under the guise of, "It's complicated". Right now I'm reading Joe Sacco's bit of comic-journalism from the early '90s, Palestine. Most Palestinian families had various family members who'd been kidnapped from their homes, tortured, or just disappeared off the face of the Earth, and that still goes down now. It's complicated.
