It was about the delirious gobbledygook spouted by Shimon Peres. My "attitude" is one that regards such gobbledygook as being gobbledygook.Lurkerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05516196101946513020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13539920.post-40340849598047429072009-01-22T17:42:00.000+02:002009-01-22T17:42:00.000+02:00Posts like this make me second think everything on...Posts like this make me second think everything on this blog...
