Has the Administration Jumped the Gun on Condemning Israel?

Hat tip Jihad Watch


Once again Israel has been accused of bombing a UN school sheltering civilians. The White House, State Department, and Obama aide Valerie Jarrett have all condemned the incident. Yet, just like previous incidents, it appears that Hamas may have staged the deaths in some manner. Jihad Watch has the report.

Even in the worst case scenario, it has been clear that Israel has gone to unprecedented lengths to try and avoid civilian casualties and that Hamas is using its people to maximize those casualties. A handful of European journalists have spoken out on what they saw. Their accounts have been posted here.

Besides, if Israel wanted to kill Gazan civilians, they could have wiped the whole place off the map by now.

Meanwhile, our own administration keeps pressuring Israel to end the fighting which they didn't start. We have this horse's ass for a secretary of state, John Kerry, being quoted as calling Bibi Netanyahu a "stubborn head who doesn't understand anything". Netanyahu is fighting for his country's survival and doesn't need Kerry sniping at his heels like a meddlesome poodle.

The Obama administration needs to remind themselves that Israel is our ally and is fighting for its survival against a terrorist organization that is using its population as human shields. This "fair-handed" approach is absurd.
