For the cool heads in this thread Sorry, Salemas. I regard Israel, for all of its faults, as an island of reason in a sea of Barbarism. So, I believe, do most of people in this country.

Robert Fisk is well-known not for his "awards" but for his relentless, tiresome screeds. He's made a good living all these years flogging and recyling the same baloney. If he were writing from the US, rather than Britain, he would be more at home with some pretty eerie publications.

Robert Fisk is Britain's most highly decorated foreign correspondent. He has received the British International Journalist of the Year award seven times, most recently in 1995 and 1996. His specialty is the Middle East, where he has spent the last twenty-three years. Currently the Beirut correspondent for the London Independent, Fisk has covered the Iranian revolution, the Iran-Iraq war, the Persian Gulf war, and the conflict in Algeria. He is the author of Pity the Nation: Lebanon at War (Atheneum, 1990), and his reporting from Lebanon has brought him international attention. He was the one who broke the story about the Israeli shelling of the U.N. compound in Qana, Lebanon, in 1996. Britain? Isn't that that pretentious little country in Europe? They used to be a power a long time ago. All that's left of their "empire" is high tea and driving on the wrong side of the street. Who really cares what they think? Bunch of fops.
