Last Week's Quote: Amnesty Boss on the Zionist Lobby

"The Israel lobby uses bribes and threats to control Amnesty-USA. And, since Amnesty-USA pays about 20% of the budget for Amnesty-England, the Israeli lobby controls London too. I don’t know about direct Zionist lobbying in England, but I do know that Amnesty supports the Israeli party line on all issues, whether by commission or omission."

Francis Anthony Boyle,
Professor of international law at the University of Illinois College of Law,
Board Member of Amnesty International USA, 1988 - 1992.

Quote of the Week

“Unless people start life with a culture of their own, exposure to other cultures will seldom enhance their moral or even aesthetic awareness. Without home culture, as it used to be called – a background of firmly held standards and beliefs – people will encounter the “other” merely as consumers of impressions and sensations, as cultural shoppers in pursuit of the latest novelties. It is important for people to measure their own values against others and to run the risk of changing their minds; but exposure to others will do them very little good if they have no minds to risk. New perspectives presuppose a pre-existing point of view.”

Christopher Lasch.
