I suggest you attack them for the colour of their hair.

Regarding Carl and Leigh, congratulations for 50 years. And no doubt 
they all said it wouldn't last .

Hi Mort,
Is that a qualified "yes"? Anyway, thanks for both the compliment and 
the critique. If you ask me which leaders/citizens are more responsible 
for the assault on Gaza, Israel or the U.S., my answer would be "yes".
I think that Chomsky gave a decent accounting of himself yesterday on Z 
in responding to the critical responses to his article on BDS. I think 
that this is, unfortunately, a movement over a very long term, and more 
near the beginning than the end. I think he has some wise words that put 
things in evolutionary perspective, especially vis a vis S. Africa.
But on tomorrow's show I'll take every opportunity to be disagreeable 
with my colleagues, even if I have to resort to criticizing their 
wardrobes.
Best,
David

    I’ve listened to this program, and come to the conclusion that you
    all, the three participants, agree with each other too much, as if
    everything that is said between you is unchallengeable. It is not.
    Especially annoying is the seeming worship of the god Chomsky, who
    (I think) is losing his way on important issues, especially with
    regard to the desirable two state solution in Israel-Palestine.  I
    would rather defer here to Ilan Pappe. Chomsky is doing a disservice
    to those trying, e.g., via BDS, to punish the Israelis as long as
    they oppress the Palestinians.  There is even the implication that
    BDS could only lead to a neoliberal result in »Palestine », as it
    has in S.A.  There are other facets of the remarks that are less
    than clear or convincing, some bordering on boilerplate in its
    repetitiousness, IMO. For example, as to who is wagging whose tail,
    U.S. or Israel; the issue is more complex than statements that the
    U.S. is more responsible for Israel’s actions than Israel itself,
    which borders on nonsense.

    But withal, the program is stimulating, worthwhile, and on the whole
    admirable.
