Reference :- We thought that young Douglas Murray had disappeared from the interweb , until we accidentally stumbled across him again .
Yesterday I searched the interweb trying to find an episode of the gloriously subversive cartoon series "Quads " by John Callahan . Sadly John , a quadriplegic , died many years ago , but I have kept his books in the comic section of the bookcase . The lads at The Sky Reply are disinclined to open books , and find a computer screen more easy to read . Personally I find the smell and feel of paper strangely comforting , and the blue light from a computer screen alienating , but that is because I am old , or so the lads tell me .
Anyway , while searching the cartoon series " Quads " , I stumbled upon a media site called " The Quad " , and blow me down if young Douglas Murray was not on the screen being interviewed . I thought that the lads might be interested , since they all thought Douglas Murray was in hiding following his total humiliation on that Joe Rogan show ... and a few other shows as well .
" Hey lads . Douglas Murray is being interviewed . " , I said .
Ken junior cracked the popcorn , and we sat down to enjoy the show .
It turned out that the interviewer was Ms Fleur Hassan - Nahoum , the Deputy Mayor of Jerusalem and a staunch Zionist .
" It's nice to see that Doug is accepting interviews from folk who understand the importance of compromise and don't hold extreme views . " I said .
" Is it . " , Ken junior said , rhetorically .
" Considering that Doug desperately needs to restore some fragments of his lost credibility , it is foolish of him to associate with Ms Hassan-Nahoum . " , Gabbo said .
" How so ? ", I said
" Allow me to quote , verbatim , a statement made by Ms Hassan - Nahoum . " , Gabbo said .
Here is the statement .
" I saw the report {of IDF snipers shooting at a Church ) this morning . There are no churches in Gaza , so I am not sure where the report is talking about . Unfortunately there are no Christians in Gaza because they were driven out by Hamas .... I don't know what happened , I don't know who was attacked , I didn't see the report . "
" How many lies can be crammed into one short statement ? It is not true that there are no Churches in Gaza . It is not true that there are no Christians in Gaza . It is not true that Hamas drove away the Christians . ( Anybody can watch a priest being interviewed after his Church was shot up by the IDF , and Pope Francis regularly talked with his Palestinian Christians in Gaza. ). Furthermore , to ice her stale cake of mendacity , Ms Hassan -Nahoum began her statement by claiming she had seen the report , and finished it by saying she had not seen the report . " Gabbo said .
" That is concerning . Young Douglas needs to choose his interviewers more carefully . This does his reputation no favours at all . " , I said .
" Nobody of any standing in the media is interested in Douglas anymore . He must be getting desperate " , Gabbo said .
" Oh how the mighty have fallen . " , Ken junior said .
" What? " , I said .
" Old Testament 2 Samuel 1:19 " , Ken junior said .
I wonder if Ken junior has read the manifestos of tax deductible bronze age superstitions ? But I guess if he has , that is an easily remembered quote .
Your comrade , Ken
