Why Israelis support the Gaza offensive

Israel's post-traumatic war is not just about stopping Hamas rockets, but about repairing reputations -- and erasing the stain of failure.

    Reversed statements without reversing the circumstances

    Typical of the false equivalencies spouted off by the blind True Believers.

    Again, you lie. I said nothing of the sort, the closest I came to anything like that was that I reversed your own statement to show you, again, how hypocritical you are.

    Yeah, I'm such a hypocrite because I don't condemn one parasite, Egypt, as harshly as I condemn another parasite, our Stalwart Ally in the middle east, Israel, but merely condemn them. So, Egypt is the country that is dropping bombs on Gaza? Egypt is the country that is using all those fancy US Taxpayer founded toys to murder civilians? Wow, that is breaking news. It's too bad that Egypt is a puppet guarding a fence for the Empire.

    Get over yourself.

    Like I said earlier, your mealy-mouthed pro-Israel arguments are not even worth discussing. But hey, maybe all of the brainwashed pro-Israel defenders that reflexively belch up the usual talking point tripe really believe the half-truths and one-sided arguments they are making. Too bad. It's your problem not mine.
