The Israel rules

America's support of the Gaza attack proves once again that our mythical image of Israel has blinded us to its faults -- a myopia with devastating consequences for both countries.

    Oh, you don't have to give it back because they weren't bombed?

    something stinks:

    First, I am not "your dear." Why do supposedly liberal people always attempt to "put women in their places" by leading with dismissive, sexist language?

    "When was the last time we had some F-15s drop some bombs on a reservation?"

    So let me get this straight. You're making the argument that YOU don't have to give back your property to the Native Americans because no one bombed them from airplanes? Sorry, that does not get you off the hook.

    The fact is that the American Left is smugly urging the Israelis to do something that they, as individuals, would not contemplate for an instant. We call that hypocrisy.
