I'm reading What Will Survive of Us by Howard Jacobson. What an odd novel. Yet it's made me laugh out loud in places. #HowardJacobson #WhatWillSurviveOfUs #reading #contemporarylit #novel

A week a long time in supporting Israel right or wrong?
There are a few who are still mulling over why Jacobson suggested the media are guilty of a blood libel by constantly reporting the death of Gazan children. He didn't accuse individuals or groups, just the meeja.

Dear Howard Jacobson, don’t let historical hatreds hide Israel’s cruelty | Louise Adler After his controversial column last week, a former publisher tells the novelist his focus on ‘blood libel’ is blinding him to atrocities in Gaza

Swords at dawn.

The founding of Israel wasn’t a colonial act – a refugee isn’t a colonist It’s understandable that Palestinians have been indoctrinated with Jew hate, but there is no such excuse for Western students.

In a compelling piece for the New Statesman, Howard Jacobson tackles misconceptions about Israel's founding. He insightfully argues against viewing it as colonialism, highlighting the difference between refugees and colonists. #Israel #HowardJacobson 1/10
