Why does Israel need to stand down?
So, Israel is in Gaza, kicking the crap out of Hamas. Problem is, the media and the World hates it. Wait, that’s not a problem.
Israel, in a moment of diplomatic gold, issued a statement saying that they wouldn’t be asking permission from the UN to defend their own borders from incessant rocket attacks. Thank God that at least Israel sees that they are being attacked by a continual terrorist organization whose number one goal is to eliminate Israel.
But, but, but, they have schools and hospitals! Yes they do, and they also have bombs and RPGs, not to mention the schools merely brainwash children into the bloodthirsty animals that teach them.
So, let me get back on point. Why are the Palestinians allowed to play victim? Why is Israel, the country who has been bombarded for decades, the imperialist evil empire? Seems to me, every time the Palestinians pick a leader, its a horrible terrorist outfit. (Remember, if Hamas falls, Fatah, just as bad, takes its place in two seconds).
I look at it pretty simply. If the Arabs left the Israelis alone, Israel would happily settle down. The Israelis repeatedly (foolishly) agree to stop bombing the Palestinians, yet rockets continue to mar the skies over Zion. One side has proven, through writings, crazy speeches, and deeds that they aren’t interested in anything but murder, and the other wants so badly to be left alone, they fall for the trap every few years, get pissed off, and cut the head off the dragon.
There are peoples in this world who deserve their own homeland. Zimbabweans that don’t work for Mugabe, the Kurds, lots of people in Darfur (Where are they in the news? Is that over? I seriously don’t know. All the actors have better stuff to do now, I guess.), and the Jews.
The Palestinians have been repeatedly offered land, and its never enough. But we already should have known that. Their central tenets include erasing the Jewish state from the world. How anyone can look at their history and feel remorse FOR them is beyond me.
I hope Israel continues to defend itself. Its the most important right any sovereign nation possesses.
