Gwynne Dyer’s Latest Columns Recycle Anti-Israel Narratives & Ignores Inconvenient Facts
With apologies to Benjamin Franklin, who once opined that the only sure things in life were death and taxes, it seems that another item can be added to the list: that England-based columnist Gwynne Dyer would regularly use his platform to assail Israel.
