about a week ago, the poet described his impressions of Israeli television, saying that "the Jews from the Oriental communities will get the blacks and the Ashkenazis [European Jews] will get the bastards." The poet went on to say "The idea of taking people who have nothing in common arose. The one lot comes from the highest culture there is--Western European culture--and the other lot comes from the caves."
