Would you like me to post the torn apart and burning US and Israeli
flags I've used Leicas to fix on film a couple of times lately?
What kind of 'discussion' would that lead into? 

I accept the principle with two forums, and I keep to that most of the
time. But this flag behind the flowers of an apple or pear tree and the
subtitle was litterally and figuratively a red cloth - una muleta.
Impossible not to speak out!
