The "Gandhi of Palestine"?
(Telegraph-UK) Andrew Gilligan - The British police have finally caught up with Israeli Islamist leader Raed Salah after he was served with an exclusion order by the Home Secretary on the grounds of his undesirability. The idea that someone like this could seriously be described as "the Gandhi of Palestine" (as does the "Middle East Monitor" website) illustrates the terrible mess the Palestinian cause has got itself into. Perhaps if they really had had a Gandhi - peaceful, non-hating and above all a builder, not a spender, of moral authority - the Palestinians might have got more of what they want and deserve by now. Instead, they've got Raed Salah.
