Stand Still So We Can Hit You

Posted by Roy Bischoff under: World Affairs .

Once again we see this strange attitude that started with the Korean and Vietnam wars. Equal, measured warfare that does not deter the enemy and simply drags out endlessly. In the following article we see criticism of Israel for not allowing Hamas to launch a few rockets. How terrible of Israel not to be willing to let a few of their people die and a large city be terrorized (sarcasm intentional). And if they do respond, they should only respond in equal measure so that Hamas feels no compulsion to stop their fun. Where is the logic in the U.N. to make these kinds of statements?

The U.N. is criticizing the blockade, which is a peaceful means of addressing the illegal occupation of Gaza by the terrorists. Would they rather Israel use military means? No, sadly I believe that what they really want is for Israel to disappear completely. For many years now they have shown a prejudice against the state of Israel so we want to keep the eye of logic trained on their insipid statements.

Gaza humanitarian crisis worst in 40 years: report

By Tim Large
LONDON (Reuters) -Israel’s blockade of the Gaza Strip has created the worst humanitarian crisis since the Israeli occupation began in 1967, aid and rights groups said on Thursday.

Food shortages, crumbling health services and a water and sewage system close to collapse are all part of the daily misery facing 1.5 million Palestinians in Hamas-controlled Gaza, a report by a coalition of British relief groups said…

A senior U.N. official warned the dire conditions outlined in the report would be worsened by any escalation of Israeli military action in response to indiscriminate rocket attacks from Gaza.

“It would be devastating,” John Ging, director of United Nations Relief and Works Agency in Gaza, told Reuters by telephone.

“It’s grossly disproportional,” Geoffry Binder, an expert on international humanitarian law in London, told Reuters.

“What we’re dealing with here is a few rockets coming from presumably one small corner of Gaza. And the response is the blockade and the destruction of hundreds of lives and the impoverishment of the whole area.”

haha, great analysis Roy. You don’t really expect the U.N. to use logic do you?

kind of reminds me of WWI. Both armies entrenched and just lobbed stuff back and forth. But there were a lot more deaths. Still, no real movement, nothing accomplished but death. I prefer the strong deterrent. It’s the only way Israel can survive.

Roy I like your title. Very funny especially with the picture. Good job not letting the reporter get away with being an idiot.

I feel sorry for the Israelis. Can you imagine what it would be like to be surrounded by cultures who want you dead? And when you try to defend your people with such overwhelming odds you get criticized. Crazy.

JERUSALEM — Hamas militants cheered over the deadly shooting at a Jewish religious academy in Jerusalem as thousands of Palestinians took to the streets of Gaza to celebrate Thursday amid recent armed conflicts in the Hamas-controlled strip.

Stand still indeed. This is what they are up against over there. These people are barbarians. The UN is beyond useless. It is anti good.
Important enough for ya Nalvy?

Kind of ironic that title, isn’t it Cave? It would have seemed cruel with what happened except this came up here first.

Pickles Says:

7 March 2008 at 12:40 pm.

Cave, very funny about Cat licking the hair off your legs. I love this place.
