#1 No, you don't want to encourage her to attract a hate-speech lawsuit...the EUros can't defend themselves against terrorists, but they have some fierce laws protecting themselves from good ideas.

#2 Calling a spade a spade! That could get you arrested in some places and stoned to death in others.

#4 By pointing this out, the left will accuse her of "hate speech".

I thought in Britland Labour was supposed to be "(Â©BBC)the left"(Â©BBC) and Tony is just a Demo hawk. No reason Britain shouldn't be like the US and [Continental] Europe where fringie fanatics are finding out the political spectrum is really circular and as they approach the Antipodes people way at the other end look just like themselves. Looney.

#5 Azzam really doesn't like getting bitch-slapped by a woman in public; loss of face and all that. This was most enjoyable.

#6 I for one am prepared to repeat Ms Ellman's sentiments outside parliment.Dr Tamimi is by his own admission an apologist for suicide bombing and an active supporter of a terrorist organisation - Hamas - who's stated aim is the total destruction of the state of Israel. According to Ms Ellman - and I have no reason to doubt her - he has been heavily involved at the heart of it's publicity machine justifying it's terror tactics of blowing innocent people to bits. Oh but I forgot the're not innocent the're Jewish. His vile pronouncements are probably in breach of both our race hate and new terrorism laws and as such he ought to be prosecuted. I doubt if he will though as David Blunkett seems to cut a lot of slack to Islamic extremists like Tamimi.It also really makes me sick that Tamimi and his ilk are so quick to threaten legal action against anybody that simply point out his transparent hatred of Jews and justification of the killing of the innocent for what they are, racism and terrorism. As far as I'm concerned the legal system should be there to protect us from people like Tamimi not the other way around. Finally I'd like to point out that suicide bombing / the act of killing as many innocent people as possible may be ok as far as Islam teaching is concerned but it most certainly is not in the civilised world where he currently resides. I can only wish that he would trundle of to Israel where I'm sure he would be greeted by what he deserves - a missile from an Israeli helicopter gun-ship.
