Feeding Your Allies to the Wolf
Any time Isreal reacts forcefully to whatever threat confronts them, (a reaction that most of us would otherwise consider normal) the world does its best imitation of Lewis Carrol’s works (Alice in Wonderland). White becomes black, up becomes down, common sense becomes exceedingly rare. A world- wide discourse is elevated to a shrill pitch, revealing a great deal more about the screamers than it does about Israel.
No one is surprised that Muslims throughout the middle east, would be wailing in the streets. That was precisely the intent of the blockade-running, Gaza flotilla. But, what about the rest of the world? The UN, for one, is demanding an inquest, primarily of Israeli actions, as they customarily do. That an organization which claims to be the conscience of the world, can be so transparently biased against one nation, reveals the UN for the self-serving farce it has become, and Ban Ki-moon for its current head dupe.
Also customary are the bleatings from the EU, lead by Germany’s Merkel and French president Sarkozy. In concert, they wasted no time condemning Israeli action, apparently, before they knew the full details. Europe is in a defensive state about the Muslim issue, both in the middle east, and at home, and have never hesitated to cast Israel to the dogs rather than inflame the tensions between two civilizations. Can any nation within this bunch of hypocrites rely on any other as a democratic ally?
What about the street scene throughout the western world and the US? Here Muslims are not alone in agitating. The student/left community is predictably there beside them, because it is so left to blame Jews for their problems. Wherever you go in our supposedly enlightened countries, student and left wing are two groups which could be mathematically described as completely congruent. Why are students overwhelmingly leftish? Because their ivory tower professors have long since surrendered their principles and embraced pretzel logic in order to exclude noise and conflict from their comfortable, cloistered world. It takes guts to defend Israel when such a large part of the world’s population is dedicated to its extermination. The students are merely the children of this intellectual collapse, unable to discriminate on their own, between BS and reality.
And how can that be otherwise, when the “leader of the western world” is so deeply mired in pools of BS, of his own creation, that he can barely move in any credible direction. He is one of the grown children of the intellectual collapse. The international relations legacy of the Obama administration (aside from the economic rubble it will bequeath to Americans) will be to relearn the lesson about kissing your enemy’s rear. And as well, the lesson that says that feeding you allies to the wolf, will not satisfy his hunger for you.

All these Israel haters know that when they criticisize Israel’s actions, they don’t stand a chance of being blown up by suicide bombers or nuked by crazy men who are waiting for their 72 virgins.
Self preservation is what it is all about….so sad that it takes precidence over common sense and standing up to the real haters.

There is sensible responses to threats and then there is retarded ones, Israel just did a retarded one once again.

You are right about self-preservation. A yellow streak down your back can make things look much different. However, as I said, if we feed our allies to the wolves, eventually they will have only us to eat.

Hard to say if this was a bright or stupid response, without being there.
