right because it's ok for a regional military superpower to lay a 3 year seige to a half million civilians because that regional military superpower didn't like the way an election turned out.
poor israel. yeah.
o and by the way there's a wide range of political viewpoints in israel and alot---ALOT--of israelis don't think the barbaric tactics preferred by the right are ok.
why you'd have to watch tv in the united states to imagine there was anything like unanimity around the policies of likud and the whackjob rightwing organizations that represent those fine settler interests.
so this is about a remarkably stupid action that has ALOT of israelis aghast (read some of the israeli press and stop watching fox) undertaken on the watch of a rightwing government that's made up of ultra-rightwing parties as part of the coalition that alot of israelis do not support. it's nothing like "poor israel, they're always wrong." except maybe in the world of sean hannity. but who takes hannity et al seriously?
