[Mr. Mojo]

Former CIA Director Leon Panetta referred to Israel’s pager operation as “terrorism” during a recent interview with CBS News.

In Lebanon last week, mass explosions of pagers and walkie-talkies belonging to members of the Iran-back Shiite group Hezbollah. The attack has been widely attributed to Israel’s intelligence organization Mossad, leading to the deaths of dozens of people and wounding thousands.

During an interview with CBS News Sunday Morning, Panetta told anchor Lee Cowan that the action’s by Israel are “a form of terrorism.” Panetta then added that the actions by Israel could lead to more deadly operations going forward in the war.

So the brilliant and very targeted killing of members of a group that even Foggy Bottom has long designated a terrorist organization is now considered (by degenerates like Panetta) to be …terrorism.

Panetta then added that the actions by Israel could lead to more deadly operations going forward in the war.

A real Nostradumbass he is. Bad week for Panetta, Obama, and their ilk. And for their Iranian bedfellows

Well, in this case I think it’s pretty clear that one man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter

[Parley Baer]

So, when Hezbollah attacks Israel that is not terrorism according to Panetta. What an idiot. Why the Jews vote for these Democrats is beyond me.

Wacky Leon doesn’t know his keister from a whole in the ground. He’s got no credibility.

[Salman]

I guess he knows what a terrorist is, because he was one?

in the Koran, Mohammed said

“war is deceit” so deal with them

[ridesthemiles]

PANETTA can crawl back into his hole.

[WeaslesRippedMyFlesh]

Oh Leon, is your pussy sore.

[plain talk]

Hey Leon - was killing Osama bin Laden an act of terrorism?

[4Runner]

Leon Panetta should just stick to making bread.

[mass55th]

Go crawl back into the shithole you came out of Leon.

[kiryandil]

Panetta reminds me of Christopher Walken's mob punk in True Romance.

"Dennis Hopper and Christopher Walken - The Sicilian Scene"

Panetta's mama probably taught a young Kamala Harris some of her political ladder-climbing techniques...

[doc maverick]

Maybe someone will send Panetta his own personal pager so he can have a closer connection to his friends.

[Cincinnatus.45-70]

“Call for Leon Panetta. Call for Leon Panetta. Mr Panetta, please pick up the white courtesy phone.”

[existentially_kuffer]

Go get ‘em Mossad!

[Southside_Chicago_Republican]

Would it have been better for Israel to have used more conventional measures against them that would have been less efficient and possibly result in more collateral casualties?

[Bob434]

Leon had years to denounce the palestinians and hezbollah and call for THEIR ceasefire as they showered 1000’s of rockets into Israel hoping to murder innocent Jews, and he and his ilk were silent- he’s lost all moral authority to call anyone else terrorists- -

[rktman]

Leo pinata.

[Eli Kopter]

Panetta is a pimp.

[Ancesthntr]

Panetta is a soul-less scumbag.
