This week in The Middle East

Amnesty International is accusing Israel of war crimes. They state that Israel deliberately targetted civilians in it's 30 day war against the Hezbolla in lebanon.

Ok , but the Hezbolla were deliberately targetting Israel , tossing rockets into israeli civilian area's.

Why arn't they accusing the Hezbolla of war crimes ?

Some canadian ministers of parliment visited the scene in Lebanon , and the invite of Hezbolla , and agreed there had been some kind of war crime commited here. They did not visit israel or survey the damage commited by the Hezbolla on israel.

Lets be blunt here.
You're dealing with an organization that , morally , makes the Klu Klux Klan look like saints. They don't hesistate to lie, and they want Israeli's dead. Their holy book calls all Israeli's dogs and pigs, and their Hadiths demand that every Israeli be killed.

And they teach this to their own children since before the kids learn to walk.

Yet people continue to treat them as if they were decent upstanding citizens.

Do you treat members of the Klu Klux Klan as decent people ? do you invite them to your dinner table so you can talk about the best way to kill and humiliat blacks ?

You most certainly do not.

yet , some how , yes we do.

This is our fault. Their behavior is totally unacceptable, yet people insist on overlooking it and treating it as if it was.

don't blame them. Blame us.
