[lbo-talk] Sharon, man of peace

[Doug Henwood]

"Even today I am willing to volunteer to do the dirty work for 
Israel, to kill as many Arabs as necessary, to deport them, to expel 
and burn them, to have everyone hate us, to pull the rug from 
underneath the feet of the Diaspora Jews, so that they will be forced 
to run to us crying. Even if it means blowing up one or two 
synagogues here and there, I don't care. And I don't mind if after 
the job is done you put me in front of a Nuremberg Trial and then 
jail me for life. Hang me if you want, as a war criminal..."
