George Jonas has taken a look at the flotilla of fools, and found them to be duplicitous in motive and obvious in execution. That's the easy part. What he finds annoying is the thick stupidity shown by many world powers to ignore all reason and to be critical of a peaceful people who are constantly threatened and repeatedly attacked.
"When arms speak, the laws fall silent." I don't think the Romans who coined inter arma silent leges meant that the laws actually cease to speak in times of war, only that the din of arms drowns out their voices. In our days, even the sound of cannon is muffled under the indignant whining of self-righteous asses who break into brays of indignation when their bluffs are called and their actions turn out to have consequences.
Enough with the cries for "measured response". Who does the measuring? Did Daniel Pearl receive a measured response? Did the three thousand souls who were trapped in the World Trade Center have the an opportunity to call for measuring in the response they received? No?
The fact is that Israel is a Western democracy in a sea of Islamic fundamentalist and terrorist states, most of which are overtly or covertly committed to its utter destruction. It is imperative that we support our allies and defend them from moral attack. Failing in this will signal those that hate us that we are no longer willing to help defend the only friend we have in the region. Obviously only a complete and utter fool would do such a short sighted, self-defeating thing.
Meanwhile, Barrack Hussein Obama resides in the White House.
Hmmm.
Update:
Mark Steyn weighs in.
"In contrast to the general directions of Helen ("Go back to Germany and Poland") Thomas, the peace-lovers aboard the Mavi Marmara were more specific:
In response to a radio transmission by the Israeli Navy warning the Gaza flotilla that they are approaching a naval blockade, passengers of the Mavi Marmara respond, "Shut up, go back to Auschwitz" and "We're helping Arabs go against the US, don't forget 9/11".
Such amusing conversationalists."
