POPSZION’S REBEL DAUGHTER. Hannah Arendt on Palestine and Jewish Politics After saving I was getting a message from ClipMarks that there was a problem. This post was a test only to see if it was working. The same problem message came up and it's only this morning that I discovered that despite the message, the clip was posted.
