Zionists have made any criticism of their actions
"politically incorrect". Most people in the USA
feel they have to whisper, for fear of being confused
with a Nazi if they disapprove of the use of Israeli
cluster bombs against civilians (actually the cluster
bombs are from the USA... but that's another issue).
Oh but you see, I'm from India and couldnt care less about either side in
teh conflict. And I tend to see where neither side is approaching this with
clean hands.
The Jewish settler movement certainly had more than a few setbacks when the
israelis themselves broke up several of those settlements and in some cases
forcibly dragged the people out of there.
Israel today seems to be rather different from the menachem begin / golda
meir hardline days when they could afford to make statements like that.
The EU certainly condemned both of them - hamas for acting like terrorists
and the israelis for reacting to terrorism by choking off an entire
civilian population alongside the terrorists and not letting aid in.
You dont see the jewish defense league, anti defamation league, shadowy
rich jewish financiers etc doing a thing to either muzzle the guy or
prevent this from going out on Reuters, eh?
You are - somehow - falling for that same myth .. that israel is sacrosanct
and immune to criticism because it could be seen as a politically incorrect
treatment of jews. Or of muslims for that matter, for criticism directed at
Hamas.
