When the evil are allowed to hide among the children
How do you fight an evil like terrorism that targets the innocent for death and then hides amongst them in hopes of more innocent death when righteousness tries to root their evil out? It is a huge heartbreak when innocent children are killed as happened recently but who is really to blame, Israelis trying to stop the killing by hunting down these subhuman animals or the terrorists that hide among the innocent hoping for more death. They are not just hiding among the innocent for protection; that could be done without involving innocent people. They hide there in hopes of creating more innocent dead.
Yes, it is appalling. It is appalling that Hizbullah would deliberately target Israel's cities, and do so from civilian areas, hoping that Israel would kill greater numbers of Lebanese civilians. It is appalling that this barbaric tactic - after some 5,000 Israeli bombing sorties - has proved "effective," with tragic consequences for innocent Lebanese people, and producing the expected international fallout: not against Hizbullah, but against Israel.I watch western nations sit back and yawn as Israelis are killed and express outrage when Israel defends itself. We are living in a mad world where peace means the innocent must die and turn the other cheek while the evil are allowed their safe harbor among the world’s children.It is also appalling that for three weeks over a million Israelis - Jews and Arabs - have been living in bomb shelters, never knowing when a missile aimed at them will kill them or destroy their homes.
