What a knob.

He's sort of right. "Israeli" has become interchangeable with "Jews". They're not automatically the same thing.

Sure, he's worded it badly, but it's Michael Gove, the butcher of the school system, so what do you expect.

Like a lot of Tory MPs, Gove is no doubt sponsored by the Friends of Israel lobby to the tune of a right few quid. He's a puppet...in fact he even looks like a puppet.

EDIT

Friends of Israel sponsorship

The method of donation – medium-sized sums to constituency offices often through companies rather than personal names – means that connections to the CFI or other pro-Israel group are by no means obvious. These donors may never have met the candidates, nor stepped foot, let alone actually live, in the constituency, but were happy to make donations. All candidates in these constituencies either won the seat or came close. The Tory MPs fighting parliamentary seats in 2005 whose campaigns were funded by these donors included Ed Vaizey, shadow minister for culture, media and sport; Greg Hands, shadow treasury minister; Michael Gove, shadow education secretary;

Only for thick people and anti-semites. Which there are unfortunately quite a lot of.

What Gove has said here is nothing short of preposterous for the most part.

It is disingenuous in the extreme to try and conflate the Palestinians with Isis and al-Qaeda. The Palestinians are fighting for national liberation and to end a brutal occupation. Netanyahu has been very careful to make the juxtaposition as often as possible. There has been a deliberate attempt by the Israelis to make sure the world sees them as the same thing.

I'd agree with him that comparing Israel to Nazi Germany isn't helpful. All it does is make Israelis switch off and cause offence, and they are the people who need engaging most on the subject.

In this video he admit's to being a friend of Israel.

I wouldn't trust him to run a bath never mind our education system.

...like lots of politicians of all colours, Gove gives the impression that he knew better than thousands of folk who had dedicated their lives to education. Similar with IDS and his welfare reform agenda. The bottom line in all of the proposed changes is not that they will make things better, its that they will save lots of money.

Well, actually he's a racist believe it or not, that's why I'm glad he's not the foreign secretary, not like he stood much of a chance getting that position any way, hardly any conservatives including myself agree with his crazy views. He called the Palestinians culturally terrorist people, rejected negotiations between Israelis and Palestinians and criticized the USA for actually calling for a peace deal. Back a few years ago when Israelis were busy killing lots of Gazans including Gazan children, Gove and his wife were at a fundraiser raising money for vulnerable Israeli children. That would be funny if it wasn't so ironic and sad. He also called anti-war Conservatives and other MP's a "disgrace" for refusing to wage war on Syria. I personally blame his difficult childhood, he had no motherly affection in his early life and his adoptive parents must have dropped him accidentally on his head at some point.

that would back up his bizarre policies, like when he wanted english literature students to study mainly works from the british isles themselves. a subject more than nearly any other that is supposed to encourage open minded thinking, being bogged down by a nationalistic little weapon
