From a friend (while the January 2009 war in Gaza is happening):

What you won’t hear from the liberal news media…

– The Jews are not demonstrating with their dead on the streets, yelling and chanting and asking for revenge.

– The Jews are not promoting brain washing the children in military training camps, teaching them how to blow themselves up and cause maximum deaths of Jews and other non Muslims.

– The Jews don’t hijack planes, nor kill athletes at the Olympics.

– The Jews don’t traffic slaves, nor have leaders calling for Jihad and death to all the Infidels.

– The Jews don’t have the economic strength of petroleum, nor the possibilities to force the world’s media to see “their side” of the question.

– Perhaps the world’s Muslims should consider investing more in standard education and less in blaming the Jews for all their problems.

Regardless of your feelings about the crisis between Israel and the Palestinians and Arab neighbors, even if you believe there is more culpability on Israel’s part for whatever reason, the following two sentences really say it all:

If the Arabs put down their weapons today, there would be no more violence.

If the Jews put down their weapons today, there would be no more Israel.
