Podcast explains how The Economist gets Israel so wrong in one paragraph

Every week BrianofLondon gives you his taken on the culture wars, news of the day and whatever crosses his consciousness. Brian is a Jewish expat Brit who’s returned home to his indigenous homeland: Israel. I could be covering Israeli, US or British politics, security resisting global Jihad. Brian’s a Brexiteer, a friend of Tommy Robinson and staunchly pro Western Civilisation.

The archives lost for years have been found and they're coming back. Shire Network News was one of the earliest podcasts and ran from 2005 to 2009 ending just a few years before anybody had even heard of podcasting. It would be called conservative today but it was staffed mostly with ex-lefties. Fiercely pro-Western Civilisation, pro-Israel standing up to bullies.
