From Robin Shepherd Online (H/T Shrinkwrapped):
In other words, this is policy. This is what the British Foreign Office stands for. This what Great Britain Plc does in the world. This, in other words, is the extremist mainstream — a centre-ground in Britain which is now so saturated with hatred for the Jewish state, with sympathy for the “grievances” of the terrorist, with ambivalence about liberal-democratic values themselves that a complete reversal of normality has now been achieved.
The mainstreaming of extremist views, on the Right and the Left, and how they reinforce each other, is a thesis I will be developing.
