On the contrary, the confession is further evidence against Israel in their minds. Once you see the world through a distorted lens, everything confirms your initial judgments. That's what prejudice is all about.Ednoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4008006782907969381.post-30315884385471018082010-10-30T16:46:27.307+02:002010-10-30T16:46:27.307+02:0010 years from now they'll claim he was torture...10 years from now they'll claim he was tortured into a false testimonyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4008006782907969381.post-51076226318522637072010-10-28T20:29:52.857+02:002010-10-28T20:29:52.857+02:00Well yeah, I've noticed that myself.

Because I can't image what it might be.<br /><br />Second, to ask what shred of evidence he's got for his outlandish thesis. Beyond innuendo and spite, I mean. Facts.<br /><br />Third, most serious of all: that Silverstein is a seriously deranged fellow, and I've long since stopped reading him. Juan Cole is profoundly wrong but you can see how he manipulates his facts. Silverstein is simply sick.Yaacovhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12835192312242961481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4008006782907969381.post-75254718311604845082010-10-28T16:20:13.340+02:002010-10-28T16:20:13.340+02:00Yaacov - what do you think about Silverstein's...Yaacov - what do you think about Silverstein's take on this?
