Jihad Watch's Moral Myopia and Hypocrisy Alert: World condemns Israeli action in Gaza (Updated)
Hyscience — ... Despite the fact that Israel targeted Hamas facilities and most of the casualties were Hamas terrorists, world leaders predictably condemned Israel's actions, with our "friend," French President Nicolas Sarkozy, calling Israel's response "disproportionate." Then again, I guess anything short of waving a white flag is considered disproportionate to a French leader. ...

Surest sign Israel is winning: 'World leaders' call for 'halt' to 'violence'
Israel Matzav — Surest sign Israel is winning: 'World leaders' call for 'halt' to 'violence' [image] Where were Monkey Moon and the other ' world leaders ' for the last seven years when the 'Palestinians' were shooting rockets into Israel from Gaza? Where were they in the three years since Israel left Gaza and the rocket fire intensified. And as to you Mr. Sarcozy, go stick your snotty French nose up your you-know-what. It's got to be disproportionate . What do you want us to do? Shoot one rocket at a time? Going after the shooters within thirty seconds hasn't worked real well, has it? UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon said he was "deeply alarmed" by the vlence and bloodshed, and ...

The attacks were aimed at Hamas targets. Early reports indicate that most strikes were clean meaning that they reached the military and political targets they were supposed to hit instead of innocent civilians. Israel announced that the air raids came in response to the thousands of rockets that Hamas fired at Israeli targets in the last week. One such rocket fell short killing two Palestinian schoolchildren instead of the innocent Israeli civilians they were supposed ...

Disproportionate [Darleen Click]
protein wisdom — Yesterday I pointed out the lawlessness that exists right over our southern border. In many respects, portions of Mexico are no longer under government control. What if Baja were fully under control of criminal gang and they decided they didn’t like the border fence in San Diego nor the law enforcement efforts of California and started firing rockets into San Diego — Say about 80 rockets in one day that rained down on a 25-30 mile area from Chula Vista to downtown San Diego to the Naval shipyards in Coronado to even a few reaching the Miramar Marine Corps Air Station. What do you think the US response would be? A shrugging of shoulders with talk of erecting a balloon ...
