The New Walid Jumblat
For three years, I was accustomed to read the words of Walid Jumblat in the neo-conservative and Zionist columns and article in mainstream US newspapers. No more. Is that because Jumblat has become critical of US and Israel? Is that why MEMRI no more carries his interviews and speeches? Well, I will update you. Yesterday, he spoke of the NOs of Khartum (friends told me that he seems to be channeling Angry Arab as of late), and said that those who align with Israel wind up in the garbage dumpster of history. I thought that you should know. Tell David Ignatius because he used to quote and cite Jumblat five times a day.
