Random Middle East Thoughts.

Cowards. I've called the terrorists that before, but it still holds. Indescriminately launching rockets into Israel. NBC has the gall to question Israeli artillery crews about the accuracy of their shells? Shame on you Brian Williams. What are the targets for the Hezbollah rockets? You never get that info. Isn't it important? Shouldn't the MSM say, "Hezbollah lauched an attack on an Israeli munitions depot"? Wait, that's not what happens, is it? Hezbollah just fires rockets at civilian populations and they are granted a pass from the National Broadcast Company? Why don't the American people ask these questions of NBC?

Why do the terrorists always wear hoods and masks? Why do they disguise themselves? What is it that they are fighting for? Shouldn't they be proudly out in front of the cameras, declaring their allegiance? So the command from Allah is, go out and kill the infidels, but hide your face while you do it? Why? What are they ashamed of? And where do they get the old lady to pose for the picture of her holding a rocket launcher? Why isn't she wearing a hood?

How does Israel continue to exist? A small country, geographically and in population. These giant Arab countries continue to espouse the complete and utter destruction of Israel, but do nothing. The entire problem in the area is the existence of this tiny little country? Why don't the Arab countries, Syria(population 18 million), Saudi Arabia (pop 27 million), Iraq (pop 26 million), Iran (pop 68 million), Egypt(pop 78 million) get together and end Israel(pop 6.5 million)? That's roughly 217 million Arabs (not including the rest of the Middle East) versus 6.5 million Jews. Is it really possible these 6.5 million people are the problem?

Why don't we call it the Levant anymore?

Nobody is that stupid.

Israel is right to defend itself.

Head over to the Washington Post and check out the most recent Krauthammer column, linked here.
Once again, Charles Krauthammer nails it. What is the point in negotiating? The Islamofacists see negotiation as a sign of weakness. Humor me for a minute, but what if Israel decided to cede ALL land? Just quit existence as a state? Would that create immediate peace in the Middle East? The answer is no. You have to look no farther than the Sunni terrorists in Iraq to get your answer.
I'm shocked at the admonitions handed out to Israel by the hypocrites around the world. How is Israel's response any different than the Russians to Chechnya? It's not. France and Ivory Coast? Same. No nation should be required to "measure" or limit it's defense of soverignty. Get off your high horse, Putin and Co.
This is time to be proud to be an American. Standing up to terrorists and supporting our Allies that must do the same.

Can you imagine a terrorist group in Montana, supported financially by Mexico and buying weapons from China/North Korea/Russia attacking Canada and our government doing NOTHING? Launching rockets at Calgary and invading Canadian soil and kidnapping Mounties?
