In response to Never again-not-only-for-jews-but-for-Palestinians and all humanity

Palestine, Israel and truth

I applaud Pearls and Irritations and John Menadue for the forthright bravery of the piece “‘Never again’ not only for Jews, but for Palestinians and all humanity”.

Yes, it will stir outrage, and accusations of antisemitism. But whatever our loyalties or religious and political affiliations, we desperately need journalism that probes, does not cower in the face powerful interests, and tells complex and tragic truths directly and uncompromisingly.
