The left, as always, has a rather nuanced view of a just war where Israel is concerned. History is selective, actions when performed by one side are understandable, but retaliation completely out of bounds, and some people’s word is adequate - no verification needed; instant conventional wisdom!

No, what is interesting about the collective opinion of the Juicebox Mafia is the proposed rule of just war: Whoever kills more is the guilty party. This amounts to a total rejection of the distinction between aggression and self-defense and indeed the entire concept of deterrence. Taken to its logical conclusion, moral victory becomes impossible, because the moment one side has dispatched with a greater number of enemy than casualties have been suffered, justice has been forfeited. The only means of ethical conduct is pure immolation — which is indeed the prescription for Israel, which is expected to behave as the only true Christian nation on earth, responding to attacks by endlessly turning the other cheek.

Why does he call the left the The Juicebox Mafia? No idea. But it’s certainly funny. Read it all.

Veterans Day

November 11, 2008 by Laura · 1 Comment 

Veterans Day - perhaps second only to Memorial Day as one of the least noticed yet most important holidays of the year.

Soldier’s Angels has opportunities to help with Project Valour IT, or by sending care packages.

Veteran’s Day is finally worthy of Google’s notice - now that Obama has been elected.

Defiant Infidels has a really well-done video to mark the day.

Michelle Malkin has a lot of links.

Read Michael Yon’s latest.

World War I veterans mark Armistice Day.

Loins girded.

The quote of the day happens to be one of my favorite Jack Handey “Deep Thoughts” quotes. Very timely!

I can picture in my mind a world without war, a world without hate. And I can picture us attacking that world, because they’d never expect it.

Joe Biden promised us that Obama would be tested. And not only was it “within six months,” it was a lot closer to six hours. Read more

Out of the closet: Iranian Parliamentarian Endorses Terrorism

October 30, 2008 by Laura · Leave a Comment 

Just one more nail in Iran’s coffin, to add to all the rest.

…it would be madness to attack Iran now anyway.

However, that doesn’t diminish the seriousness of an Iranian leader standing in its parliament and endorsing terrorism as a state policy.

Obama: Dangerously Naive or Deliberately Deceptive?

September 27, 2008 by Laura · 2 Comments 

Engram wonders if Obama is Dangerously Naive or if he’s deliberately deceptive:

And this fact brings up the complete non sequitur that an enthralled media allows Obama to get away with every time (and will do so again now): Because al Qaeda’s safe havens are inside Pakistan, how will withdrawing our troops from Iraq and sending them to Afghanistan to fight the Taliban serve to defeat al Qaeda in Pakistan?

Obama Talks Tough On Pakistan

September 16, 2008 by Laura · 2 Comments 

Pakistan is disgruntled over our “hot pursuit” style policy of going after terrorists within their borders. Obama doesn’t care: “If we have actionable intelligence about high-value terrorist targets and President Musharraf won’t act, we will,” Obama said. Read more
