Interesting to note how ABC

Interesting to note how ABC News backs up UN policy initiatives by choosing the footage it shows. This evening on the 6:30 newscast, I watched a Palestinian fire his automatic rifle pop-pop-pop at an Israeli tank from a position behind a building. There was a pause while he pulled his rifle up, checking it, and then the area he was using for cover simply exploded into flame and smoke as the tank put a shell right into it. It’s a good thing they got him, or those anti-tank bullets he was using could have gone right through that armor and killed everyone inside!


Given the reported American authorship of the Resolution and President Bush’s scolding of Israel for its recent activities, it seems as though America may be taking on the parental role required: If you kids can’t get along, you can both go to your rooms without any supper.


Not exactly a trenchant political analysis on my part, but lord someone needs to smack those folks around over there. Recently, I’ve gotten so deeply involved in the mess that when things really started to heat up—a dozen dead one day, thirty the next, and on and on—I started to simply feel sick at heart. Every day, it was more of the same…Palestinians proving their faith and devotion to the cause by hurling themselves into death with the grim resolve of martyrdom…Israelis proving the size of their nationalist balls by taking out individual riflemen with tanks.

Wicked monkeys, all.
