There were a pleathera of diaries criticizing Israel for the military action against Hamas...
You asked Israel to:
- Unliaterally declare a cease fire (because Israel is stronger than Hamas) - Done
- Stop the military action - Done
- Let humanitarian aid in to Gaza - In progress
- Withdraw troops from Gaza - In progress
And do this all without requiring any pre-conditions on Hamas like stopping rocket fire and recognizing Israel's right to exist...as you requested...
So where are the diaries praising Israel for their positive actions? You spent 3 weeks bashing them and then when they do the right thing...crickets...there used to be 50+ diaries a day calling for the virtual hanging of the IDF and Kinesset leadership...you words were heard...Israel listened to you and did virtually everything you asked.
Now we need to go after Hamas Militants like this and bash them as providing unproductive statements in the peace process.

Lets go...I want to see 50 diaries a day now asking for both sides to come to the peace table and work out a land deal so that both sides can co-exist peacefully....
We have had the war and unfortunately death and destruction that comes from it...now lets blog just as hard for the peace....
I suspect that we will not however...that the Israel bashing will continue...I hope I am wrong...peace to all...
