In particularly liked the progressive editors comment.

Editor's note: Mr. Cummuta has a right to his views, but we would note that the governments of Iran, Palestine and Lebanon were elected

Guess that make it ok if they want to kill us.

That the gov'ts were democratically elected only makes the collateral damage more justified.

Reader's note on the Editor's note: We'd like to note that the government of Iran was not elected, they were appointed by a religious council to their positions and while some secular positions are chosen by public vote, it is the religious council that determines who is fit or unfit to run. Beyond, they can also remove anyone voted in by the popular vote.

The government of Lebanon has admitted that they have little control of their country, so actually don't count as a government. We'll call that an advisory council. And Palestine isn't a nation, and thus can't have a traditional elected government.

Oh, for Pete's Sake! I'm surprised he didn't add in there that they were "fair and square" elections unlike those in the USA where Algore and John F-ing Kerry should REALLY be the ones in charge these days. *Rolleyes*
