In general, the liberal principle persists that when Arabs on the offense kill lots of Arabs it is normal, but when Jews in defense kill far fewer Arabs it is reprehensible.  If Israel were weak, Hamas would do to it what ISIS is now doing to Christians, and the world would react to the rout and slaughter of the Jews with the indifference that it shows to Christians. Wait, it does that anyway.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I would add that to understand the Left you must understand that lefties typically leap to the defense of the perceived underdog regardless of what the underdog has done to deserve the treatment he receives.  Right and wrong don't come into it.  The relative weakness of the underdog is taken to justify his criminality while the decent people who defend themselves are urged, quite absurdly, to show restraint. The terrorist entity, Hamas, whose charter<\/a> calls for the destruction of the state of Israel, understands this, a fact that lends a bit of sanity to their otherwise insanely self-destructive attack on Israel.  They seek the sympathy of the morally obtuse Left.<\/span><\/p>\n

This morally disgusting characteristic of leftists is also illustrated by the recent furor over so-called 'botched executions.'  They take the side of the scum of the earth while not even mentioning the suffering of the innocent victims. For documentation of this claim, see<\/span> Capital Punishment and the Difference between Conservatives and Leftists.<\/a> <\/p>\n
