A Choir Performance about Terrorism

Canadian Choir Finds a Terrorist - Samson!
The National Post of Canada, ever vigilant to report about political
correctness atrocities north of the border, reports this week that the
Victoria Philharmonic Choir will be performing a new work showing the
Biblical Judge Samson as a suicide-bombing murdering terrorist, similar to
those Palestinian terrorists so beloved by the PC crowds. The National
Post reports:
"Simon Capet, music director of the Victoria Philharmonic Choir, says he
wanted to update Handel's Samson oratorio to be relevant to today's
audiences by drawing comparisons to ongoing conflicts in the Middle East."
University of Victoria's view of Biblical Judge:
A pro-terror moonbette, the philosophy professor Shadia Drury, recently
compared Samson to World Trade Center bomber Mohammed Atta in a talk at
the University of Victoria, claiming that the Jews in the Bible invented
terrorism. Andrew Rippin, dean of humanities at the University of Victoria
and a specialist in Islamic studies, seems to concur.
I mean, Samson as long-haired vigilante bashing the rival gang members,
that I could see. But ironically, the Canadian moonbats attacking Samson
are simply recasting themselves as Philistines. But in order to know that,
they would have had to read the Bible.
They would much rather read al-Jazeera.

Dayenu. Any one of these errors in judgment should have been enough to
end the career of a politician in a normal country, possibly even enough
to indict that politician and imprison him or her. But in Israel? The
politicians prepare for negotiations on the Saudi Plan and prepare for new
unilateral withdrawals from Judea and Samaria.
Dayenu.
