Just now finished watching Tim Sebastian grill the Israeli Justice Minister in Hardtalk.

When Tim started asking uncomfortable questions about Mordechai Vanunu, the minister tried pulling a fast one by trying to bring up Auschwitz. Tim didn't fall for it; he neatly sidestepped this pathetic attempt and persisted in his line of questioning. The minister totally lost it at this point and launched into an ad hominem attack on Tim; he accused Tim of harbouring anti-Israeli feelings.

The program ran out of time at this point.
