Well, it looks like those heroic Palestinians, the people the leftist world has fallen in love with, have once again demonstrated what they do best.
They have attacked a school bus in Israel with an anti-tank rocket fired from Gaza. Two were injured, one child critically.

Is anybody dancing in the street? Passing out sweets, perhaps?
And as that was happening, our heroes from Hamas in Gaza were lobbing rockets into southern Israel. The Israelis reportedly shot one down and responded by striking a Hamas headquarters. As of the latest report, 5 Palestinians were killed.
Start the world-wide protests. I can already see the shouting mobs in Arab capitals, the shouting mobs in European cities. In America and Canada, we will soon have impromptu Israel Apartheid weeks surfacing yet again. Bring in the loons like Norman Finkelstein et al, who will hit the campus tour telling the kids how evil Israel is. Do you think for one minute that someone like Finkelstein would condemn the Palestinians for targeting that school bus? How about that other propagandist at UC Berkeley, Hatiem Bazian, himself a Palestinian? How about Professor William "E-Mailer" Robinson at UC Santa Barbara? Do you think either of them will condemn that attack on a school bus? Hardly. However, they will condemn Israel's striking back, for sure.
More of the usual collective blame from you, as if Palestinians are one homogenous people, who all personally pulled the trigger in this incident.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous,
ReplyDeleteFirst of all they would have to live in hiding. As for echo chambers, try MSNBC. At Fox has opposing views and debates. Not so on MSNBC.
MSNBC and Fox are two sides of the same pathetic infotainment coin. My point still stands.
ReplyDeleteNo it doesn't stand because the fact is that Fox presents different viewpoints, both in their team and guests. MSNBC is everybody singing the same song.
ReplyDeleteOkay. So what in the hell does that have to do with my actual point???
ReplyDeleteMy original point was that you wouldn't hear about Palestinian dissidents anyways, because you only get your news and information from completely biased right-wing sources. How is "Well... MSNBC is more biased!" a legitimate response to that point? Because to me it just makes you look like a kindergartner.
Just what was your point, Mr Anonymous second-grader?
ReplyDeleteGary, there is not sufficient room on your site to answer all your questions, and the length would be an unfair imposition. So here is my answer:

Miggie is welcome to comment. I eat trolls for breakfast.
Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteI don't think you ever said where you would get news of " the dissidents who say leave Israel alone and stop deliberately targeting civilians?" I understand you don't like American news sources on either the right or left, so, if they exist in any number at all, where would you find out about what these dissidents said or actually did in protest to say, the rocket attack on a school bus?
You may know of someone or some people here who may voice dissent somewhere but it appears they are inconsequential and next to invisible in the Middle East.
