The Israeli Ambassador To The Uk, Mark Regev

[sandyRoe]

Is he the same Goebbles like propagandist who was wheeled out by his government during their attacks on Gaza to explain why it was necessary to use ammunitions containing white Phosphorus against schools and hospitals?

[Baldric]

Looks like it

[sandyRoe]

Things being as they are just now I can't see him being declared persona non grata.

[Peter Pedant]

an ambassador according to Dr Johnson is an honest man sent abroad to lie for his country .....

[sandyRoe]

... To go and lie abroad for his country?

[Ric.ror]

And do you honestly think Hamas wouldn't do exactly the same if they could?

[sandyRoe]

The members of Hamas are as much victims of Israeli aggression as any of the innocent women and children killed by them in Gaza.
There can be no equivalence between land grabbers and the people they've dispossessed.

[Svejk]

Was this question prompted by an e-mail from the Labour Party or some faction thereof?

[sandyRoe]

No. If anything it was prompted by a memory of Regev acting as an apologist for Israeli slaughter, rekindled by his appearance criticising aspects of Labour Party policies.

[Svejk]

Ah, his name 'popped up' on a couple of other sites yesterday. Questions just like yours from other lefty's. (unless you've been moonlighting)

[Svejk]

Is this the guy?

[Ric.ror]

And what about the innocent Israelis murdered by Hamas
Fewer because Israels friends chose to spend money on the iron dome
If only Hamas had some rich friends prepared to do the same
Oh wait a minute......
