RIP John Pilger

Just when we needed you most.

Oh, well, as we fortysomethings so often have cause to observe, it is up to us now.

    2. Even better than that the Arabs are about to buy the Telegraph Group. Only just. But even so.

  2. The Arabs pretend to make a fuss about Israel for their domestic audiences but of course they don’t really care-to this day, the Palestinian refugees of 1948 are kept in refugee camps by Arab countries instead of being resettled. They’re possibly the world’s oldest “refugees”. Throughout the latest crisis, the Arab world has kept the oil and gas pumping and kept its vast currency reserves in US dollars. They care about Palestinian lives even less than Hamas, which carried out its October 7th pogrom of mostly civilians in the full knowledge that it would trigger the desired response from Israel.

    1. No one with any knowledge of the Palestinian struggle has any time for the Arab regimes. Unlike the Palestinians' persecutors in Europe and the United States.
