Israel defends itself against repeated aggression by Hamas …

… and the predominant theme amongst many popular lefty bloggers to Israel’s response to the attacks that have been taking place against them for weeks, courtesy of Jimmy Carter’s favorite terrorist group Hamas? The American Power blog has a rundown of their reax (more can be read here), which should remind you somewhat of how the United Nations both views and treats Israel.

For the life of me, I will never understand how any American Jew can support liberal Democrats.

PEBO and Co. are in ‘close contact’ with Sec. of State Condi Rice over the issue, but have as of yet have not taken a position on the conflict, presumably because they feel that America only has “one president at a time” (not that that’s stopped him/them from weighing in on other issues before).

Atlas Shrugs is tracking the latest developments. Just keep scrolling.

Stay tuned …

The WaPo headlined their story: “Israeli Airstrikes on Gaza Strip Imperil Obama’s Peace Chances”

Got that everyone? The real story here isn’t war breaking out in the ME again, or of Israel once again responding to those who would exterminate them, or even that people are dying, or that the only difference between a Hamas “truce” and being next door to a slavering pack of murderous subhumans that are trying to destroy you is… okay, I’m lost on that one.

Nope, the real story here is “uh-oh, those damned Joooos are going to torpedo Obama’s totally cool and ultra hip plan to, uh, do somehting.”

Whores, liars, and traitors – the MSM can’t die fast enough for me.

Iran is arming, training, and inspiring Hamas – another proxy in their war against the Jews. Those with memories will recall the Tehranians used the Hezzies in much the same way in Lebannon in 2006.

The AP report that I read made this Israeli operation sound like the Normandy landings. Of course, heavy emphasis on women & children casualities. The only thing missing from AP was the Baby Milk Factory.

We’ve seen it all before, folks. Too many times.

Meanwhile, Iran continues rushing towards nuclear capability….

I noticed there was very little mention of the Hamas rockets that fell short killing two PALESTINIAN children. No, no, the media cannot be bothered covering things like that. That might take them away from their Israel-bashing.

It’s nice to see that Israel has finally grown a spine.
Presumably they’ve figured out that with the election of Barack Obama they’ve lost their last friend on earth, so there’s no reason to keep the gloves on.

Indeed, Trish, I think Hamas made a large miscalculation this time. From everything I’m reading Israel is set to finish Hamas once and for all.

And so Israel, which has occupied, de-occupied, and now bombed the living daylights out of Gaza, is probably at last determined the only solution is to do to Gaza what Sherman did to Atlanta. The tanks are coming.

And because the Gazans elected Hamas, they have become complicit in what Hamas does, so in some sense I’m less upset at civilian deaths than I might normally be.

Anyway, when the devastation ends, and the Palestinians trudge back into the ruins after knock knock knocking on Egypt’s door and being turned away, and find they have no homes to live in and no bread to eat, it wouldn’t surprise me at all if . . . well let’s just “echo” Marie Antoinette, who never did say, “qu’ils mangent des brioches.”

No argument here. I laugh everytime I read about lay offs or bankruptcy for one of the MSM outlets. Their demise could not happen soon enough. – Lorica

May I point out that Hamas has just passed legislation reintroducing crucifixion to Christians? And our president-elect thinks that he can sit down and talk to these people? Is he not a Christian? Would not Hamas like to take Obama and nail him to a cross if they could?
