Israel: Stop Apologizing

by Bill Levinson “Israel Shells U.N. in Gaza” (January 15) reports,

Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert said the military fired artillery shells at the U.N. compound after Hamas militants opened fire from the location. Three people were wounded. “It is absolutely true that we were attacked from that place, but the consequences are very sad and we apologize for it,” he said. “I don’t think it should have happened and I’m very sorry.”

Ehud Olmert is clearly not capable of managing Israel’s public relations, and we will try to help him out with the correct public relations statement. “We are sorry that Hamas, in clear contravention of the Geneva Convention, knowingly, willfully, and maliciously used an ostensibly neutral United Nations building as a combat position, and that Hamas’ war crimes therefore put innocent lives at risk.” End of story.

I pray that the election of Hussein opens the eyes of the Israeli people that they are on their own and must rely upon their own selves, and prompts them to elect Netanyahu.

The sooner they get that a$$clown Olmert out of there, the better. I really can’t believe he’s had such a long goodbye.

For real. I’m praying that Netanyahu will win. Israel needs him more than they realize.
