You know, moral equivalence was bull back during the cold war, and it's bull in the Middle East. Israel is a decent country, and her enemies are evil. The rest is commentary.
And if the Palis are relatively weak, THANK GOD. I never understood sympathy for the Palestinians because their battle with Israel isn't more of a "fair fight." The Palestinians are lead by wicked murderers, whose capacity for destruction is limited ONLY by their lack of sophisticated weaponry. Does anyone doubt that the murder toys of the Karine A would be in use right now if Israel hadn't intercepted them?
