Israel's hands are tied? Israel has carte-blanche to do whatever it damn well pleases: war crimes against the Gaza strip or slowly strangling the West Bank while bids for statehood get shut down by the West, or shooting up ships full of perfectly peaceful activists and getting off scot-free. No other country in the world is able to get away with what Israel gets away with, not even America, and it's all due to some combination of misplaced Holocaust guilt and racism (given that Israel fights the scary brown people). Israel with nuclear weapons (which they have, and nobody has batted an eye about) is just as scary as Iran with nuclear weapons (which people think would be apocalyptic or something)

This x1000.

Personally I'm baffled how much Israel violates human rights in the middle-east and people still think they represent western civilization and all that stuff. I don't think it's about racism in the western world, which, frankly, is minor next to what you get on eastern Europe or the far east. Now, a people who see itself as the chosen race doesn't seem likely to me to respect a few arab gentiles...

Anyways I'm a bit deluded with the western world today since a woman who got pregnant of a teenager is facing possibly 20 years of prision in the USA. Puritan morals doesn't seem that much of a step up from islamic law to me...
