I’ve been thinking recently about dodo birds. You know, the fat, friendly and flightless bird first discovered on the island of Mauritius at the end of the 16th century, the one that was rendered extinct within less than a century by European hunters and the alien animals they brought with them. Then I look in the mirror and ask myself whether I, along with fellow liberal Zionists, will soon go the way of the dodo.
