well, the Guardian actually does journalism. Not that many places left in the US who do.

They are British-based. But I know what you mean.

Sorry; didn't mean to imply they were in the US -- just that they're filling a rather large gap in US news reporting. I suppose we should be happy that there is still a major news source with some integrity so we aren't completely dependent on wholly-owned subsidiaries of the extreme right-wing for news. But the fact that news source would be British was not on my Republiscum bingo card.

I was totally pissed that they fired Medhi. I guess the bosses just couldn’t take him speaking out about the massive death & destruction being perpetrated in Gaza AND the West Bank by the IDF & Netanyahu’s admin.

I mean how dare he have empathy for millions of innocent civilians being shuffled around like dominos & cut off from medication, food, water, electricity, & cell service!!

Glad to hear he’s writing for The Guardian; I have a subscription, I’ll go look for his articles.

He is a very intelligent man The panel discussion he did on anti-semitism not being the equivalent of anti-zionism, several years ago, was one of the best discussions I've seen, one is a policy and the other is hate for an identifying characteristic. He and his fellow panelist stated it brilliantly, using facts , history, and logic .
