Quote:  One thing that I often say to those that criticize Israel from the left but look the other way in terms of what is going on in other Middle East countries is to try to live in other Middle East country for a couple of years.

 

  Also,  I wonder if CBS' Lara Logan's perception of Israel and the Middle East changed after the horrific attack on her in Egypt.   :whistling:

There are many on the right who ignore all the things that Israel does though.  In fact you rarely hear about it on the "left-wing" media.


Many countries in the middle east have terrible human rights records.  They execute Christians, Jews, Gays, and Atheists alike.  Their record on women's rights is appalling.  Their sponsorship of terrorism is disgusting.  And the middle east is the best example of why I would never ever ever want a Theocracy.
