‘Het is niet alsof GL-PvdA van plan is bedrijven te nationaliseren, fabrieken te onteigenen of miljardairs tot multimiljonair te belasten. Neerlands links belooft niet eens op zijn New Yorks links het ov gratis te maken of huren te bevriezen. Waarom de VVD zo hysterisch doet, kan ik niet verklaren.’

"Every architectural choice conveys an ideology of order, cleanliness, and control. The chaos of Cairo has been erased. Air is filtered, the light precise, the crowds disciplined. It is an Egypt without noise, an Egypt without Egyptians."

My article on the 20 point gaza "peace plan" is now out. Let me tell you why peace processes in the Israeli Palestinian conflict seem to keep failing, with a focus on Tony Blair the menace of the middle east

Gaza peace plan risks borrowing more from Tony Blair’s failures in the Middle East than his success in Northern Ireland
The former British leader was tapped to lead redevelopment efforts in Gaza if a deal is agreed upon.

Shouldn't take more than 5 minutes of your time.
