Lowenstein is obviously an anti-Western ideologue
I haven't read the article yet and I don't know who Lowenstein is but your comment deserves a comment.
Is it not possible the author did get something right? But you wouldn't know since you dismissed it before reading it. Is it possible your prejudice may have clouded your objectivity?
I don't all the in's and out's of Palestinian politics but I'll read the articles and see what these folks have to say.
Oh my, no, rporter314. Note that I wrote that I had indeed read the entire article -- even though I quickly recognized boilerplate that faithfully reflected 60's New Left influence. Indeed, you admit to not having read the article while suggesting that I dismissed it prior to doing so. Nope. Being the laid back, easy-going, live-and-let-live kinda guy that I am, I gave the writer (and the poster) the benefit of the doubt.:-)
Did the author possibly get anything right? Possibly -- either accidentally, or if it supported her anti-Israeli, anti-western paradigm.
As to reading articles about Israel and Palestinians, after 40 years of West Bankers and Gazans killing Israelis and Israelis killing West Bankers and Gazans, and after an even longer time of Arabs killing Jews and Jews killing Arabs, -- well, apparently there is some missing incentive to seek peace, wot?;-)
