Rogers keeps his contract by contrasting terrorism with democracy

Cop this. Lord Rogers has crawled his way back into favour with the zionists who were trying to get New York to disinvest from him. The way he did it was quite remarkable. He said that a state that routinely kills children is a democracy and a local authority that has killed nobody in the last year is terrorist. Look, it's here in Ha'aretz:

Asked to describe his current views on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, he said he viewed the matter as a choice between a democratic Israel and a Palestinian government controlled by the militant group Hamas, which has sent suicide bombers into Israel.

"We have a country that is a terrorist state and a country that's a democratic state," Rogers said. "I'm all for the democratic state. I have strong feelings about democracy."
