Rather perilous time not to be blogging eh?
Israel prosecutes a war against a stateless terrorist organization, the usual suspects line up to criticize and demonize.
The problem is, you can’t beat Hezbollah if you play by the rules, because they don’t themselves.
Israel bombs an area where Rockets were fired from, civilians die. Why? Because that’s where the rockets are. Apparently you strap a few civilians to your launchers your opponents are at fault when they die. AA Gun Turret? The correct placement for that artillery platform is in the courtyard next to the barbeque and the paddling pool.
Israel cannot continue its assault on Hezbollah and the international community are utterly unwilling to put the group to the sword themselves. The west’s own morality loses us this fight.
Yes that’s right Morality, we’re better. Shove that in your pipe and smoke it hippy.
When Lebanese civilians die, we mourn, when Israeli civilians die it’s mission accomplished for Hezbollah - party in the Arab street. There’s no answer to that.
It’s so hard to be PC when in reality all you want to do is seal up the borders around the Caliphate-mongering 13th century dropouts and leave them to their wretched lives of technological obsolescence and homosexual killing.
Pull out and leave the Lebanese to their new Islamofascist overlords. The UN abandoned that nation long ago when no one stepped forward to help disarm and dismantle Hezbollah. The Lebanese themselves let Hezbollah take root, stand in Parliament and begin the slow transmogrification of nation into death cult.
This is what we reap when we do nothing. Now the weed is too large to be uprooted.
Sorry for the pessimism.
Later
