Who Really Wants "Ethnic Cleansing" in the Middle East?
(Spiked-UK) Brendan O'Neill - A new definition of chutzpah is people thinking they can spend 16 months crying "Crush the Zionist entity!" and then wring their hands over the threat of "ethnic cleansing." It's an activist class consumed by a burning hatred for the very idea of a Jewish homeland thinking it can lecture its opponents on the importance of respecting other people's homelands. I can stomach some hypocrisy, but I draw the line at pontifications on "forced removal" from a political set that dreams of removing the Jewish State from the family of nations. We need to take down the idea that Trump has unforgivably put "ethnic cleansing" on to the agenda for the Middle East, for the truth is that the West's influential Israel-loathers did that long ago.
