Just saw on the Sunday ABC Nightly News video taken by a human rights group of Jewish settlers’ harassment of Palestinians in Hebron. The Palestinians live within cages. The Israeli soldiers do not interfere with the harassment or stone throwing.

Tell us again why Jimmy Carter isn’t 100% correct to call this Apartheid?

Because we aren’t supposed to distinguish between the actions of a government and the whole of a religious or ethnic group. To object to the actions of the Israeli government is to be an anti-Semite. Probably an anti-Dentite as well. Almost certainly, anybody who would do such a thing burns synagogues and recoils from mirrors and garlic.

No, everything won’t be ok, someday.

O.J.: Account of killings is “fictional”

Excerpt: O.J. Simpson says a chapter from his unpublished book that hypothesizes how he would have killed his ex-wife and her friend was created mostly from a ghostwriter’s research and is not a confession.

“I’m saying it’s a fictional creation,” Simpson said Sunday in a telephone interview. “It has so many (factual) holes in it that anybody who knew anything about it would know that I didn’t write it.”
