John Crace reads the books you can't be bothered to read and pares them down for you. He also, as in this case, reads the books you wouldn't want to touch, leave aside read. This one is by Mad Mel Phillips who probably thinks Avigdor Lieberman is a Hamas stooge. Only the Daily Mail and the BBC regard her rants as worth dissemination. Oh, and Encounter Books, whoever they are.
No doubt we'll soon be hearing that Mr. Crace is an anti-semite, a holocaust denier and a cossack pogromchik. Meantime here's a paragraph from his digested read of Mad Mel's work.
"The anti-Semitic lies proliferate at a terrifying speed. The most pernicious is that Israel has no sense of humour. What's not to laugh about Mossad agents flying in to Dubai and taking out an Arab? All I can say is thank God there are still some fearless media outlets, such as Fox News and the Daily Mail, who are prepared to stand up for the truth. Hey? What's with the strait-jacket? Where are you taking me?"

Is it really that hard to comprehend? Americans support Israel. That will never change. End of story.
