    The 400-450 Palestinians executed by Hamas in Gaza in the last few months?

    Gary is blind to that. In fact Gary is blind to the suffering of everyone. He, like Greenwald is only interested in promoting their own Jew hatred.

    Most of the Arab press this side of al Manar or the most violent nonsense gushing out the Muslim Brotherhood, puts the blame for this squarely on the Hamas. Which puts Gary, Glenn and the rest of Salon so far off the path that literally the only people they speak for are the Hamas spokesmen who openly call for the slitting of every Jew throat in the world.

    Which we kind of knew already, it's just important to point that out.
