Here’s today’s concise quote from the Island Peace MovementTM. Jane Dunphy, commenting on Colin Powell’s speech to the Security Council, is quoted by CBC Prince Edward Island as saying:
“What I saw of the dialogue, I really couldn’t understand. As far as the pictures were concerned, there was a whole lot of interpretation there… and it was straight interpretation.”
Can someone explain to me what this actually means?
Here, as an antidote, is a well worded commentary in the Times of London.
