So, you see, in reality, the bombs dropped on
Gaza by the
Israel Defense Force are just delicate kisses, mere angels' tears, on the foreheads of
Palestinian children . . . .
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has quickly replaced
Dick Cheney and
John McCain as my preferred "STFU [fill in the blank with the unfeeling, aggressive, rigid, dissembling, hard-to-believe-they're-human political figure of your choosing]!!!" scream at my TV whenever I watch the news.
And I can assure you that is no small accomplishment.
Congratulations, Benny. You've just given birth to a million new jihadis. And a billion others like me, ineffectual bystanders, people who would never take up arms against anyone yet who feel for the people of Gaza, the
West Bank, and Palestinians everywhere, but who can only blog about it, tweet about it, post articles about it on
Facebook, and yell at their TVs.
