Dear Sir/Madam
I attended the meeting at Tel Aviv University immediately after the launching of Prof Sand’s book.
The Forum consisted of most of the fine minds of some of the best historical minds at Israeli Universities.
It was fascinating and informative, however, not one of the other professors accepted Prof. Sand’s hypothesis and were able to argue with him from a point of view of historical facts and deep knowledge on the subject.
Prof.Sand,I suspect wrote this book to raise eyebrows and interest which is perfectly acceptable but he himself admitted to inserting his own personal political bias which distracted(my opinion) from the purity of his professed theory.
I just now heard of this idiot Shlomo Sands…we Jews need guys like him like we need another loch in tuchas! What is it with these people…dont they know how they feed into the Hitlerian, Inquisitianist, Pogrom mentality! Talking to them does not goo…but a kick in batzum would be best just to let them know they are the same as the Nazi/Islamists!
