"Peace" Protestors Condemn Israel, Support Rocket-Attacking Hezbollah
This word "peace" you keep using. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Thousands of demonstrators marched through London and hundreds more gathered in Amsterdam and Chicago on Saturday to protest against Israeli attacks in Lebanon and the refusal of the U.S. and British governments to condemn them.

Police said around 7,000 people joined the London protest as it snaked from the banks of the Thames to Hyde Park, first in brilliant sunshine and then in torrential rain.
Many carried red and white Lebanese flags and placards condemning "Israeli crimes in Lebanon."
"We are all Hizbollah. Boycott Israel" read one.
We are all Hizbollah?
We are all terrorists?
As the majority of these protestors were Muslims, doesn't that sort of, ummm, suggest that Muslims are in fact all terrorists?
Oh, I'm not saying they actually are. But that's what this "peace" protestor is saying.
All Muslims are Hizbollah, ergo all Muslims are terrorists.
Ergo: They really shouldn't be allowed to fly on jets or attend our universities, correct?
Again, I don't take that as strictly speaking perfectly accurate. Sometimes (and this would shock some bloggers, I guess) words are used that overstate things a bit.
But still.
"We are all Hizbollah."
Interesting.
Thanks to yls.
Sorry... I have violated Rule Zero and I am commenting on other blogs. I have no idea if you guys want to be informed about a personal, meaningless blogwar. I imagine most of you do not. Further, I'm not inclined to give the imbeciles in question any traffic.
(Oddly enough, this scary-important blog linked me, and yet, my sitemeter shows no referrals from that site that I can see. )
Mystery Solved: Juvenile to the end, they didn't link my site; they linked a cached page, which doesn't give me Site-Meter hits.
Ah, well, I did de-link them. Pretty immature, I admit. And I'm not linking them now.
Still, the Preening Pretty Ponies are putting on such a show of cantering their civility and "substance" that one would imagine they really would strive to outclass their beneath-them "punks," such as myself.
Alas, Some In the MSM are Stupider Than Bloggers Update: Dawnsblood sends this
Laura: Here’s my question to you: If Hezbollah’s strength is seriously degraded, is that good for America and our security interests, or bad for America and our security interests?
Juan: It’s TERIFFIC for American security interests.
Laura: So, why on earth, Juan, would we tell Israel to stop, cease fire, because a cease-fire applies to whom? It really applies to Israel. It doesn’t apply to Hezbollah, they’re not listening to anybody.
Juan: What is going on in your head? Where are you? Have you noticed lately how many people who are dying? Both on the Israeli and the Lebanese sides.
I wish I had the brainpower right now to address this, but my mind fails me. I suppose I'd like to say something about the fact that the left simply cannot comprehend that two sides in a dispute may not be able to use "diplomacy" to resolve their differences, as their aims and agendas are fundamentally irreconcilable and non-negotiable, and in such cases, no matter how horrible war is (and Juan is right, of course: people are dying, and that is not a good thing) war is inevitable unless and until one side has been punished so much and with such great loss of life that what was previously "non-negotiable" becomes somewhat more negotiable.
Hezbollah is not at that point yet, and neither is Israel.
Lefties hate war, of course, and as they know they cannot jawbone or bully Hezbollah, or use the "international community" to pressure Hezbollah, or appeal to Hezbollah's sense of humanity, their only recourse is to relentelessly attack Israel.
Oh-- plus, they're by and large Jew-haters and have the reverse-racist belief that in any dispute between people with slightly-lighter and slightly-darker skin, the slightly-darker people are right and are entitled to commit mass-murder to vindicate their poltical agenda.
