Don't take it seriously---no one is going to send an invasion fleet,
aircraft or a flood of ballistic missiles to back up their hysteria
about the Israelis defending themselves from suicide bombers and Gaza
missiles, nor will they do so against the U.S. in Iraq if there is any
degree of success---as the regime of Saddam Hussein demonstrated, more
than anything else the Arabs respect a winner.
The Russians, especially after the Beslan school atrocity will not speak
against or hear any nonsense about how terrible it is to kill
terrorists. Marvelous how clarity of thought is improved by your own
ox being gored.
Al Jazeera and most European governments foam at the mouth at Israel
fencing Arab attackers out, or Israel attacking their attackers---and
U.S. prison mistreatment, but never a word of criticism of
Palestinian mass murder, the Iraq insurgent butchery of their prisoners
and roadside bombs indiscriminately killing passersby---that's all right
in the E.U. and Arab value system .
