If a single rocket is fired from Gaza territory, does that mean that everyone living in that area has automatically forfeited their life? The New York Times notes today that Israeli supporters believe that “the issue of proportionality… is a false construct because comparing death tolls offers no help in measuring justice and legitimacy.”
And we are obliged to accept whatever exonerations are offered by the IDF and their apologists. Max Blumenthal had an excellent piece on Huffington Post on the response to the initial IDF attacks on Gaza:
Almost as soon as the first Israeli missile struck the Gaza Strip, a veteran cheering squad suited up to support the home team. “Israel is so scrupulous about civilian life,” Charles Krauthammer claimed in the Washington Post. Echoing Krauthammer, Alan Dershowitz called the Israeli attack on Gaza, “Perfectly ‘Proportionate.’” And in the New York Times, Israeli historian Benny Morris described his country’s airstrikes as “highly efficient.” …. “It was Israel at its best,” Yossi Klein Halevi declared in the New Republic.
The cheering by Bush and top Republicans and Democrats for the bombing of the Gaza concentration camp epitomizes how the American political leadership has learned nothing since 9/11. The United States will be blamed for atrocities committed with American weapons and planes.

Brave IDF Soldaten Destroy UN-run Schools Sheltering Refugees
Click on image to enlargeOy, these Palestinian people are so naive, I just have to shake my head.
Did the arabs really think that they could escape our bombers and our tanks, and run to find shelter in the UN-run schools after their homes were destroyed?
Nu shoin, the farcockteh hamasniks are finally finding out that there is nowhere to hide.
They seem to have forgotten that the Jewnited Nations is working with us. Don't they remember 1947, when the UN gave us their country, their land and their houses?
The arabs cannot even get a ceasefire resolution passed at the UN! And after sixty years of ethnic cleansing, they still don't get it that no rules apply during war.
If you don't believe me, ask Americe.
United Against terrorism
Americe - the USA, where else?
Farcockteh - all fucked up. "It used to be a nice neighborhood, but now it's all farcockt." As an adjective, it's "farcockteh." "This is a farcockteh neighborhood."
