TEN YEARS AGO ON INSTAPUNDIT:

“OXFORD POET WANTS U.S. JEWS SHOT:” Oxford poet Tom Paulin is supposedly a “respected” poet and critic. An interview with Al Ahram makes me wonder why:

The interviewer wrote that Paulin, a consistent critic of Israeli conduct towards the Palestinians, clearly abhorred “Brooklyn-born” Jewish settlers. Paulin, a lecturer at Hertford College, Oxford, was then quoted as saying: “They should be shot dead.

“I think they are Nazis, racists, I feel nothing but hatred for them.” Earlier in the interview, he was quoted as saying: “I never believed that Israel had the right to exist at all.”

I suspect a lot of people feel the same about you, Tom.
