Or: ‘Palestine Is Being Led to the Crematorium’, Raouf Halaby, June 27, counterpunch.org

I’d asked permission, and have received it, from the author and the CP editors to reblog Halaby’s entire essay.  I hadn’t wanted to try to rewrite it, interpret it, and I’m posting most all of i; all bolds and italics are mine.  What the author wrote to me as he’d answered my email clearly demonstrated why this is such a burning issue for him, as it for so many others.  Salam, Raouf.  This diary is longish, but allow me to remind you that the authors of this hellacious dreck are largely the same underwriters of the current War on Iran.
