33. I can only assume
much as I hate to, that you have never had experience working with translators, translations between any any 2 languages can be spun to a degree but especially ones were there are few common reference points one can easily change the means of words or make choices in the wording so as to change the meaning, the charges that MEMRI does this are not just baseless spin, but it also should be kept in mind that if one knows anything about the organization it self and its founders it should not be unexpected either, and kept in mind when reading MEMRI's work. If there are other translations available they should also be read, though neither should taken as the final word.
