Chicken massacre? While parts of the interview were dedicated to enumerating the supposed war crimes committed by Israeli soldiers – for example, he accused troops of killing thousands of chickens and destroying the egg industry in Gaza – Goldstone spent a good portion of the interview reflecting on his personal philosophy, and how the fact that he is Jewish figured into his investigation.

Another self-loathing Jew.

Can’t wait till he investigates atrocities committed by the Jews against Germans in the Warsaw Ghetto.

While there is nothing inappropriate at condemning wrongdoing by Israel double standards are a vile thing as is moral equivalency.

For every condemnation and investigation of Israel we should insist that there be 10,000 for Syria and the Palestinians, 1,000 for Egypt and at least 100 for Jordan and who knows how many for the Saudis.
