I love Foyle's war, well at lest the early seasons. I have not caught much of the later stuff. It is interesting how there is still an element of resentment against the Irgun especially for their blowing up of the King David Hotel and the hanging of the two British Sergeants. I actually met a man once who had helped to cut the hanged men down. He was still angry all these years later. Menachem Begin, the Irgun leader, was refused a visa to the Uk in 1955. When he came to visit the UK in the 70s, he had to defend himself from criticisms of his terrorist activities. Reportedly Thatcher found him "difficult". The Foyle coverage might be part of the gradual shift to a slightly critical position of the Zionist State. Not though in the Murdoch Press. He will remain to his dying breath a thorough reactionary and supporter of all causes such as Zionism. comradely Gary On Wed, May 27, 2015 at 3:33 PM, Ken Hiebert via Marxism < marxism@lists.csbs.utah.edu> wrote: > ******************** POSTING RULES & NOTES ******************** > #1 YOU MUST clip all extraneous text when replying to a message. > #2 This mail-list, like most, is publicly & permanently archived. > #3 Subscribe and post under an alias if #2 is a concern. > ***************************************************************** > > I just watched Trespass, an episode from the 8th season of Foyle's War. > Very interesting to see the news coverage from the time portraying Zionists > as terrorists. > Not everyone will share my taste, but i am happy to recommend the Foyle's > War series. > ken h > _________________________________________________________ > Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm > Set your options at: > http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/gary.maclennan1%40gmail.com > _________________________________________________________ Full posting guidelines at: http://www.marxmail.org/sub.htm Set your options at: http://lists.csbs.utah.edu/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
