I have no idea whether Sharon ever said those words, but the link you offer at the bottom of this post is to a website for the Wall Street Journal editorial page. We should all keep, at best, a jaundiced eye toward those folk. Yes, we know, as opposed to the gospel truth of the NY Times editorial page ;-). Taranto has been pretty good about fact checking, and if you read farther, you'll see that I tried to fact check myself. The article was attributed by Sharon only by Counterpunch and a whole bunch of Arab and Holocaust denial websites. Reading further, it's clear that the original interview subject was not named in the original article, and I listed my reasons for disbelieving that it was Sharon. So I hardly think that I was displaying blind credulity. No matter what a sources slant, it's important to distinguish those who deal in facts as best they can from those who deal in rumor and propaganda.
