On the contrary Stan, rather than defending Omar, I look to point out your
errors. Your message clearly stated that Omar had written the paragraph you
referred to. That this was so obviously not the case astounded me enough to
respond.
As far as I can recall, the number of times I have responded to an attack on
Omar could be counted on the fingers of one hand (and I'm being generous
with those numbers I think), so for you to use the word 'continually' is a
bit rich.

Omar did not write the paragraph you refer to. The author, one Stephen
Zunes, the Editor, John Feffer, and the source, Foreign Policy In Focus, are
all clearly included at the top of the post.

One thing I've learned about Omar, Simon, is that he never shares an article with which he doesn't agree 100%. He's not sending articles to stimulate us. He's sending them as an extension of himself. It's a good way for him to hide his anti-semitism. It gives him plausible deniability. Omar's a very bright guy. He doesn't need you to defend him, which you do continually. How come?
