So what’s with this…
August 12th, 2006 . by Imshin…recurrent claim by, among others, frothing-at-the-mouth-Galloway (here he is in a hilarious performance on Sky news a week or two ago) about thousands of Lebanese prisoners being held in Israeli dungeons? (dungeons? I’ve visited one of the worst Israeli prisons a few times, not very nice - I wouldn’t even wish it on Mitzi the Cat - but it was all above ground level as far as I could see).
We hear his claim and we scratch our heads in bewilderment.
A slight exaggeration of the two convicted terrorists (and an Israeli of Lebanese descent), wouldn’t you say? (and that there’s a BBC link - even they haven’t heard of the thousands of Lebanese in the mythical dungeons, apparently).
And in other British news, anti-Israel demonstrators march bravely on. Israeli is always in the wrong, whatever. So much so that even the “Israel cricket team was forced to move a European championship match to the security of a British airbase after protesters disrupted their matches at venues in Glasgow”.
Obviously a ploy by worried British cricket fans, fearing that if they don’t take drastic action, Israel is going to win the championship…
