...you are not on your own. I don't know if you know this man? I hadn't heard of him previously though it seems from his CV that I should have. He's a German/Australian freelance investigative reporter and film maker. (Link below)
He makes many terrific and rationally unanswerable points, worth collecting yourselves for future discussions. "No state has the right to exist" he say, "states just exist, Israel exists" etc.
Some people really dislike Kim Hill, I think Morrissey might be one such. I don't mind her. She can at times display a good insight in her questions, and she usually goes to the trouble of doing at least some basic research.
Here, I don't know. Perhaps I could give her line of questioning the benefit of the doubt, as being the "devil's advocate" OTOH, he way of presenting her questions seemed to me to come from a highly conventional and fixed point of view, the one that Anthony is trying so hard to puncture. It does fit with my impression of her politics and beliefs. I wonder if he succeeded with Kim? According to her the majority of texted or e-mail opinion coming to her programme during the interview was supportive of Anthony. That is reassuring, and perhaps brings an element of truth to his claim that the tide may be turning for Israel.
