When should we stop supporting Israel?
Wonderful essay at
Victor Davis Hanson's blog
bq.
Well, we should no longer support Israel, when…
Mr. Sharon suspends all elections and plans a decade of unquestioned rule.
bq. Mr. Sharon suspends all investigation about fiscal impropriety as his family members spend millions of Israeli aid money in Paris.
bq. All Israeli television and newspapers are censored by the Likud party.
bq. Israeli hit teams enter the West Bank with the precise intention of targeting and blowing up Arab women and children.
bq. Preteen Israeli children are apprehended with bombs under their shirts on their way to the West Bank to murder Palestinian families.
bq. Israeli crowds rush into the street to dip their hands into the blood of their dead and march en masse chanting mass murder to the Palestinians.
bq. Rabbis give public sermons in which they characterize Palestinians as the children of pigs and monkeys.
bq. Israeli school textbooks state that Arabs engage in blood sacrifice and ritual murders.
bq. Mainstream Israeli politicians, without public rebuke, call for the destruction of Palestinians on the West Bank and the end to Arab society there.
It goes on and on and on... There is no comparison between the two societies and very much, one deserves a nation and one has shown that they do not.
