Two points. Firstly this is the most valid statement I've seen on this 
argument so far:
"steve /k/./F/":
>i don't believe many of us on the list can get a decent perspective on the 
situation >when we get our information from Sky, CNN, NBC etc.  which are 
basically the >machinery of western propaganda.

Secondly, Bryn Jones obviously believes that the Palestine/Isreal situation 
is a war, and regardless of whether you agree with that or not, it should 
be possible to talk about the destruction of an occupying force in a war 
without having your views dismissed as racist and fascist. And if I wanted 
soundbites interpreted out of context, Steve has already pointed out where 
I can get them.

On a more cheerful note. If anyones feeling a bit depressed by all this 
heavy politics, and wintry February cold (Out southern hemispherical chums 
excepted, of course) do yourself a favour and get the Dimitri from Paris 
mix CD from Mixmag. Normally of course I'd slice my own fingers off before 
buying anything from Mixmag, but I'll make an exception for Dimitri. So 
ignore the cheesy sleevenotes by a guy who can't even recognise a sample 
from Breakfast at Tiffany's when he hears one, and ignore the fact that sad 
IDM muso geeks don't like house music, put this CD on and its summertime in 
your living room.

Que le force soit avec toi,
