I shall NEVER ever forgive him for his comment that Charles was the "best known drunk in Britain" and for several other things which he has done. It is good that he is no longer our LDEPP Leader. Indeed, it was astonishingly arrogant, in my opinion, for him to stand again when Diana stood down on becoming a Vice President of the Parliament and I was delighted when he lost by 8 votes to 4.<BR/><BR/>However, I, sadly, find myself in agreement with his views on the state of Israel. A country which, in my teens I greatly admired, has to my perspective become a very, very unsavoury state and seemingly an intolerant society.<BR/><BR/>I believe that Israel has a right to a peaceful exsistance as a fully functional stable, safe & secure society. I equally believe that Palestine has those same rights and feel that the state of Israel is simply not allowing Palestine those rights. Quite frankly, I believe that it's time for a UN Peace Keeping intervention but am realistic enough to know that is highly unlikely when the USA and Israel have their very own, "special relationship".Iain Rubie Dalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11111220173557764530noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15037609.post-7937577054977014342007-06-04T19:51:00.000+01:002007-06-04T19:51:00.000+01:00Cicero,On the Sunday Times story.

If that was not the case I think the Estonians really must demand a retraction. This is not a good thing. I would be surprised if it was asI can think of few better ways to bind different groups together than to have them cheering the same team. The iconic image of Nelson Mandela in a Springbok jersey proves that completely.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Lepidus.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
