268. My guess Mosby sets the bar far, far higher when it comes to Israeli politicians...

Jan 2015

As for those cherry picked quotes, I was curious as to why Mosby didn't post a link. So I went looking and found it. He even posted them in the same order as on that site.

http://www.paulbogdanor.com/israel/quotes.html

Paulbog hates the Left, hates Noam Chomsky so much it hurts, and when he runs out of Chomsky hating steam, he hates on the Left some more. If I looked there a bit longer, I'm sure I'd find some hating on Arabs going on as well.

Anyway, one thing I learnt a while back was that when it comes to quotes, approach with extreme scepticism when the supposed source of the short sentence or so is from a book written by someone else who refers to the quote and you realise it's going to take wading through about 40 or so obscure books or articles all referring to a quote but never supplying the primary source before you decide that joining Paulbog in some irrational hate might be a better option
