Things That Make Me Go Hmmmmm

• Samir Quntar was injured in a Beirut explosion. The world should know what Quntar did to Smadar Haran’s family back in ’79 . . .
• Last but not least, Danny Ayalon’s video about the West Bank has been viewed more than 240,000 times and has sparked 3,000+ comments. If you’ve ever kvetched about the Israeli government flailing at PR, you gotta give Ayalon credit getting the message out there.

I saw the Ayalon video. I thought it was fine factually, and clever. It will be very effective in “preaching to the choir.” But (unfortunately) I thought the delivery was a bit smug and the cartoons of Arabs and Israelis are likely to be seen as condescending by people who do not already agree w/ Ayalon’s viewpoint
