Says he bids farewell to Israel bashing and yet bashes Israel in the interview. Here's my favorite quote from the article:Originally Posted by Reffo
"I don't claim to know Israel. I don't speak Hebrew, my contacts are pretty limited.
"If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand wither, let my tongue cleave to my palate if I do not remember you, if I do not set Jerusalem above my highest joy." (Ps. 137: 5-7)"
"Any generation in which the Temple is not built, it is as if it had been destroyed in their times" (Yerushalmi, Yoma 1a).
His ilk don't care about history, logic or facts. They are in it for themselves, to self promote and to feed their own inflated egos. They are a sad lot ....
