"Yes, Israel deserves security. But these bloodbaths will not bring it. Not since 1948 have air raids protected Israel. Israel has bombed Lebanon thousands of times since 1975 and not one has eliminated 'terrorism'. So what was the reaction last night? The Israelis threaten ground attacks. Hamas waits for another battle. Our Western politicians crouch in their funk holes. And somewhere to the east – in a cave? a basement? on a mountainside? – a well-known man in a turban smiles."
If your actions--especially your attacks--are spitting images of apartheid, terrorism and fascism, you cannot, you simply cannot claim to be a different case. You are what you are: a bully, backed by a superior number of weapons, imposing your will by force. You are nothing but a thug.
