If you look at this performance by the Dersh you can immediately see why the Jews are fucked and why their state is doomed (leaving aside the hilarity of Dershowitz stating how difficult he finds it to write fiction when he has never in his life written anything other than fiction).  Jews aren't likable.  They aren't likable because they can't bring themselves to stoop to acknowledge that there is any humanity in gentiles.  They can't bring themselves to try to be likable  What decent human being would come away from seeing Dershowitz not despising him and what he stands for?  Susan Abulhawa makes the excellent point that a lot of the Jewish arguments are pure colonialist arguments - the oppressed group doesn't deserve to be treated as human beings due to some imagined failure of themselves or their historic leaders.  How many times have we seen that very argument made in colonial contexts?  And yet even after she points it out, Dershowitz can't help bringing up the mythology of Palestinian families and their pictures of Hitler, as if he is too stupid to understand that his argument doesn't justify anything.

"Germain Lindsay at King’s Cross"  Why would a guy who is about to become a suicide bomber need to talk to the official running a major tube station, and how would he know the specific title of the official to ask for?
