This is a terrific summary of a very arcane dispute. We are fortunate to have people like Sol who can put the whole story together this way- Despite Sunny Jim’s and Ron Coleman’s protestations about the length and contrary to Mr Doodslag’s over-simplification of Islam, we must have more articles like these. We cannot fight complex enemies with simple solutions and pat answers. That only plays into the hands of the liberal/leftist simple retreat into ersatz emotion and kitsch. When they tell you that Islam is humiliated or that the Palestinians are suffering, you have to present them with facts and storylines to show why those humiliations and that suffering are self-inflicted and of mortal threat to all humanity. Sol always does this with accuracy and a cool hand!
