Voice from the Commonwealth
Commentary, World Views and Occasional Rants from a small 'l' libertarian in Massachussetts

"If ye love wealth greater than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest for freedom, go home and leave us in peace. We seek not your council nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen." - Samuel Adams

Svend Robinson (recently fired Canadian New Democratic Party's Middle East critic) says that that the Israeli military is guilty of "brutal crimes, torture, degradation, and murder," and said he has "taken sides" in the conflict. "I plead guilty, yes. I am taking sides. I am taking the side of peace over war, I am taking the side of the oppressed over the oppressor, I am taking the side of life over death, and I am taking the side of justice over tyranny."

He then goes on to call for an investigation into the Jenin 'massacre'. Why don't these people call for an investigation into the terror attacks into Israel. When was the last time the vaunted 'International Community' stepped in to fully investigate and bring to justice the source of terror that brings on the military response from Israel?
