On Palestine - Noam Chomsky & Ilan Pappé
 
 
so far, discussing about the ethnic cleansing and land grabbing that Israel continue to carry out on a daily basis of Palestine. that Israel is now an apartheid state, and will only be called up on their actions if the US stopped backing them (highly unlikely)
 
 
Israel is effectively like an only child. can do whatever the f**k its wants, without any worries of repercussions, as its parents, US and Europe, will not punish them

"Dark Lies the Island" by Kevin Barry. Some really excellent short stories mixed in with a few average ones.

Did you see the doc about the English Jews travelling to Israel\Palestine?

They are absolutely adamant that it's their land.

So he kept me soul for ransom.

no, I haven't see it. is it available online?
I'm not surprised by that view though, considering how brainwashed they were about what Zionism is, as well as the education provided since 1948 in relation to their march to the 'homeland'.

Been getting into baseball the last few months and I've started reading some of the history and some accounts of life in the minors trying to make it to the big leagues.
 
Currently reading the bullpen gospels by Dirk Hayhurst. It's pretty good so far.

If you getting into baseball a couple of books that might be worth reading

And there's a good amount of baseball stuff in Bill Bryson's 1927 book.
