That ought to be enough for anyone.

The OP is Omar Barghouti's (unattributed) opinion about a video from a year-old interview with someone. I don't doubt that he is truthfully stating his opinion.

The guy talking in the video is speaking in Hebrew. I can't speak to the accuracy of the English translation.

If we want to open things up to posting shocking things said on video, there are loads of Arabic-language ones translated into English and posted on sites with at least as much legitimacy as "salem-news" that I'm sure folks could dig up.

Do we really want to go there?
