Israel apologizes to Ban for hitting U.N. compound | Reuters
When their building is mistakenly shelled, the U.N. gets an apology, while the Palestinians are merely told it's Hamas' fault that the innocent are dying.
One in three of those who are dying are children. It's Hamas' fault, right? So if Israel obliterates Hamas, won't that mean there will be no one left to be responsible?
I sincerely hope the Israel right dies along with the Bush era.
But I'm not holding my breath:
Tough war talk benefits Israeli leaders
Quote:
A whopping 94% of the public support or strongly support the operation while 92% think it benefits Israel's security, according to the Tel Aviv University survey.
The poll found that 92% of Israeli Jews justify the air force's attacks in Gaza despite the suffering of the civilian population in the Strip and the damage they cause to infrastructure.
