Deborah Orr of the Independent

Deborah Orr of the Independent defends (sort of) the French Ambassador, who is in big trouble for his foul-mouthed dinner-party comments about Israel. Israel and its defenders, she opines, are so annoying that even good and decent people find it difficult to avoid "falling into the trap" of making statements "that sound anti-Semitic." And she issues a warning that isn't as anti-Semitic as it sounds: when you accuse people of anti-Semitism, it just makes them hate Jews even more.

Pure class, all the way.
