Until the world recognises that Hamas is committing three war crimes - targeting Israeli civilians, using Palestinian civilians as human shields, and seeking the destruction of a member-state of the UN - and that Israel is acting in self-defence and out of military necessity, the conflict will continue.
Is it the subtle anti-Semitic beliefs held by many countries or a fear of standing up to tyranny? What else must Israel do to appease those who desire her ultimate demise? These questions must be answered by the UN Security Council. They must grow a pair and allow Israel to finish the job. We would demand the same unequivocally.
Next segment: A great piece describing the frustrations of millions of humanitarians in the NY Post. It sums up the feelings of many Americans and Israelis:
In fact, the president-elect may not know himself. He's a babe in the woods, and the woods are full of wolves. Fighting political rivals doesn't prepare you for fighting terrorist fanatics.
...
As for our president-elect, his all-too-coy insistence that "we have only one president at a time" has been selective from the start. Glad to pontificate on stimulus packages and union benefits, Obama has used the one-president mantra to avoid taking stands on difficult issues that bedevil or bewilder him.
Our president-elect needed to make a clear, prompt statement in support of Israel. He didn't. If I were an Israeli leader, I'd be worried, too.
Obama's notorious for avoiding firm stands that might alienate any important constituency. But you can't have it both ways in the Middle East. He needs to stand up in support of Israel. Now.
And finally, when the cowardly, treacherous and hideous beast that is ex-rep. mckinne
y was on a boat, she met the Israeli Navy. The Israeli craft justifiably rammed the boat carrying the dirty cohort of evil to prevent it from providing comfort to those who wish to recreate the Holocaust morals be damned. Wouldn't you have loved f
or her to lay a hand on one of these lovelies who may not have shown the restraint that handcuffed a Capitol Police Officer?

Great posting, Obob!
Dershowitz is doing some of the best writing on the conflict.
OBOB,
Thanks for your comment. As for Dershowitz he usually is right on when it comes to Israel. As for these soldiers, to be hot and able to use firearms, heavenly.
thanks, I like how Dersh taunts pres. carter into debates on Israel. Of course carter refuses knowing it is a looming humiliating defeat
Obama has always stated his support for Israel.
Obama has always stated that Iran will not be allowed to get an atomic weapon when he is President.
It's a catch 22 for Obama. If he were to say something he would be blasted for making a statement on an international issue, because he is not yet President.
It is an international issue of violence and war, not a domestic issue of finances.
Since you disagree with Obama before he even opens his mouth, I wonder what you would say, if he did open his mouth?
he makes easy lay-ups, I want to see some jump shots in traffic. even though I live in Indiana, this is the best I can do to tie it in with b-ball.
and I believe it when I see it when it comes to campaign promises, he is a politician

Yeah, well he also talked about change and then went and appointed half of the Clinton administration. I wouldn't trust anything any politician says when campaigning anyway.

If that were the case he should not have quipped that "there can only be one president at a time" he should have said something like "regarding foreign policy, I feel it more appropriate to defer to President Bush as long as he holds the Office of the Presidency".
fabulous post Obob!..go Israel!!!
