More sympathy for Gaza from <i>TIME</i> — 13 Comments

  1. I am so tired of this game. How about we call the bluff, and embrace the horror produced by Hamas, and insist that everybody rub their faces in it. Everybody. Even the “Palestinian doctors.”

    I bet that, if each side had to send its medical personnel to treat the victims of the atrocities committed by its own fighters, we would soon see an end to this utter poisonous bullshit.

  2. Owen, do not put too much trust in doctors. The malignant posts by several leftist doctors, like this one, does not inspire confidence. I used to teach medical students. Fortunately, I retired before this nonsense began.

  3. . . . 25 ambulances are out of service.

    Of course there cannot be any mention of the fact that Hamas uses said “ambulances” for the transport of munitions, weapons systems, and fighting men: hence they are perfectly legitimate targets for Israeli fire.

  4. At one time, long ago, almost in the oldtimey days, it did journalism not antisemitic propaganda.

    It can’t go bankrupt, financially, soon enough. It is already morally bankrupt.

  5. I am not bloodthirsty but I really do not have any sympathy for the Palis. They cheer when ever the Jews are attack, and they cheer when we are attacked. They are the Enemy.
    And I do not believe any thing coming from them in the way of casualty numbers.
    Read the Hamas has said that 50 hostages have been killed by Israeli Air Strikes. I believe they just killed them. You want my sympathy, well I have none to give. They want me dead, I will return the favor.

  6. All the insane reactions of the past couple of weeks from the media/academic complex happen only because those institutions are so overwhelmingly of one world view. How could the academic who felt exaltation at the Hamas invasion feel that exaltation if he had to work on a personal level with significant numbers of members of the group being slaughtered? I’m old enough to remember the segregationists of the 60’s and how awful they sounded and how unaware they were of how they sounded. The left reminds me of them.

  7. @ miguel > “newsweek offers a little more wheat with the chaff”

    The author’s observations were absolutely correct, that the poisoning of Muslim children’s minds has to stop. He didn’t give much direction on how that is to be accomplished, but at least he recognizes the problem.
    Score one for the “moderate” Muslims.

    However, there was plenty of chaff in the comments.

  8. Meanwhile,

    “400 Body Parts”

    A radio interview this morning with the director of Israel’s Institute of Forensic Medicine describes the current situation.

    There are 400 parts of bodies left unidentified. There are no longer whole bodies left. Just a collection of body parts.

    …Bodies of couples and of parents and children who were tied together with rope and then burned alive.

    Entire families that were burned alive and burned beyond all recognition, to the point that extracting DNA is physically impossible.

    At a time when people are demanding humanitarianism for Gaza, Israelis see humanity and Gaza as two words that do not belong in the same book, let alone in the same breath.

  9. Gosh, I’m old enough to remember when we counted on Time and Newsweek to give us robust perspective on the world’s events.
