Taming the zionist lobby

Tuesday 24 November 2009

Last week's Channel 4 Dispatches programme probing the antics of the pro-Israel lobby in British politics has opened up this hitherto forbidden subject to public debate.

<snip>

But interesting though the programme was, it left out too much.

It didn't tell us that BBC director-general Mark Thompson went to Israel in 2005 to "build bridges" with the then prime minister Ariel Sharon, considered by many a war criminal and mass murderer.

It didn't tell the nation that our most important security bodies - the intelligence and security committee, foreign affairs committee and defence committee - are all headed by Israel flag-wavers.

And it didn't reveal that our Labour and Conservative leaders are both patrons of the Jewish National Fund or explain the purpose of that organisation.

Basic questions remain - for example, why are agents of a foreign military power allowed to meddle in our democratic and parliamentary processes?
