Harry’s Place is, for those who don’t know, a blog in the , which is dedicated to freedom and democracy. Currently, Harry is being sued by one , who is president of the Hamas-linked .

The charge? Apparently, Harry wrote something which Mr. Sawalha took as an implication that he, Mr. Sawalha, was an anti-Semite (and, more specifically, anti-Jewish. I know, O Reader: ’tis shocking to think that a proponent of Hamas would be anti-Jewish, and certainly ’tis libelous to say as much!
