A slip of the tongue which refers to Canada, which has none of the characteristics of a Latin American or Caribbean country or a clothing store, nor is it economically nor politically unstable, as a "banana republic" can only be explained by the aforementioned preoccupation.
One could understand how someone with that preoccupation who fantasizes about bananas and baguettes, candy canes and candles might somehow experience a lapse and somehow his 'internal editors' would equate Canada with a banana republic.
Helluva Freudian slip, though.  |  | |

Lol. The Guardian and Counterpunch are hardly unbiased sources. Add these websites to the disreputable mix also...
Informationclearinghouse / Electronicintifada / Rense / Globalresearch / Palestineremembered / Stormfront / Truthout / Jewishracism / Slate / Conspiracyarchive / Countercurrents / Huffingtonpost / Larouchepub / Spectator / Aryan-Nation / yada yada yada

Isnt that going a bit far ?
But as you already know, there are also articles from very mainstream sources, but the english version is paying. You can have free access to the french and brasilian versions here, if you happen to understand french or portuguese: Dans la prison secrète d'Israël, par Jonathan Cook (Le Monde diplomatique) Le Monde diplomatique Brasil: A prisão secreta de Israel
And don't tell me Le Monde is antisemitic just because it's a french newspaper! They even periodically print translated columns by Thomas Friedman, the 'legendary' right-wing zionist drumbeater and admirer of Ariel Sharon.
Le Monde diplomatique also features an interesting report on israeli torture while the prisoners are in medical custody: Torture sous contrôle médical en Israël (Le Monde diplomatique) | |

Since DP is an English language website, web citations should be from English language sources. Owing to the fact that I speak neither French nor Brazilian, there is no way to discern article origin, article dateline, or article contents.
In the future, cite English language sources. | |
