“World” Condemns Self Defense
Commando soldier: ‘It looked like the Ramallah lynch”
The IDF released footage of the Monday raid on the “Free Gaza” flotilla, which depicted passengers upon the ship attacking soldiers with various weapons, including a large metal pole and other metal objects.
In a brief interview with soldiers aboard the ships, one soldier said that the attack “looked like the Ramallah lynch.”
Ramallah lynch.
The New York Times couldn’t be bothered with a few details until the fifth paragraph. The criticism always comes first. Condemnation of Israel is typically fast and furious. What are facts when it comes to so called ‘peace activists‘.
Will the world EVER condemn those who continue the violence against Israel?
“Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it.” (source)
I have no sympathy towards these people. They chose to be ruled by murderous thugs, yet it is their target that is constantly condemned.
I’d shoot them too.
Oh well, the Bible says that we should not judge people.
She says: “I’d shoot them too.”
Let God sort out the good from the evil/bad?
Cromwell reference is good, there, Gary K. I would use it myself. The fools on those vessels knew that they were going to be intercepted. It was a choice that all aboard made. They chose poorly. Even when using restraint the IDF was forced to open fire. Ten dead. To bad. The choice to confront was made. Consequences followed.
Imagine the outcry had the large caliber Naval Guns been brought to bear. I am talking something like those 57 and 76 millimeter ones made in Sweden. Self loading and absolutely no feelings at all.
As our dear host so eloquently put it, the outrage is not against the attacker but the attacked. Ramallah is a very applicable reference to the situation.
And I go with Cromwell, Kill them all and let G-d sort them out.
I have also always liked:
Yea,tho I walk thru the Valley of The Shadow of Death; I will fear no evil, for I am the ‘Meanest Son of a Bitch’ in the valley.
Or this line from the song about John Henry the ‘steel driving man’:
When you see him coming, you better step aside. A lot of men didn’t and a lot of men died.
Of course, John Henry gave his life that others might live.
On Memorial Day this is something to remember.
We MUST be grateful that our soldiers have been ‘the meanest SOB’s in the valley and others have stepped aside for them.
Oue Freedoms are the result.
Ah well,
My wife informs me that it was ‘Big John’ not John Henry and that he was a miner.
Well, honestly, if you have someone coming atcha with a knife, are ya gonna let ‘em stab ya, or are ya gonna share a faster moving projectile with ‘em.
