Comments on: MELBOURNE, AFP: Saree Makdisi lecture 16Sep09 http://australiansforpalestine.com/audio-saree-makdisi-lecture-16sep09 Providing a Voice Sun, 14 Mar 2010 22:57:42 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: Horace "D000RIS" Lim http://australiansforpalestine.com/audio-saree-makdisi-lecture-16sep09/comment-page-1#comment-285 Horace "D000RIS" Lim Fri, 25 Sep 2009 19:18:41 +0000 http://australiansforpalestine.com/?p=8576#comment-285 What an illuminating but disturbing & depressing talk by Saree Makdisi. This is an object lesson in spin and marketing... or uses and abuses of unprincipled marketing. A genuine blindness and "mass hypnosis" campaign is exactly how the Jews got to be where they are now... if you are the Chosen People then you MUST succeed.

Although there were few Jewish attendees  — I knew maybe five  — there were countless Palestinians, Arabs and concerned citizens of various ages. His talk in Melbourne last week (covered in The Age), was equally popular, I’m told, people drawn to the growing global consensus that apartheid is occurring in the occupied territories with total Western support (the audio is here).
