I can give Lou a hard time too, but this twenty-four word literary masterpiece is quite humorous: "I had no idea that cannibalism gave birth to anti-Semitism but let's leave that aside for purposes of remaining tethered to the planet Earth." On Stalin's support for Nakba-era Zionism, don't forget he also sent the arms. See, for example, Ilan Pappé's *The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine* (p. 129): "Weapons were scarce since the Arab armies' main suppliers were Britain and France, who had declared an arms embargo on Palestine. This crippled the Arab armies but hardly affected the Jewish forces, who found a willing furnisher in the Soviet Union and in its new Eastern bloc." -- "Hige sceal þe heardra, heorte þe cenre, mod sceal þe mare, þe ure mægen lytlað."
