Regarding sympathy for the devil...

Tony Garcia has a wrap up of the nations that support Isreal's right to defend itself, and the nations (including, regrettably, Vatican City) that don't.

The world's penchant for offering sympathy, aid and comfort to despotic regimes and terrorists never ceases to amaze me.

Why the tolerance for despots? Why the tolerance for oppressors? Why the tolerance for wanton murderers of innocents? Why the tolerance, and even support for pure evil?

Lest we forget, Hezbollah was behind the attacks in Lebanon that killed nearly 250 U.S. Marines, with the largest recorded man-made, non-nuclear blast--ever. Don't ever underestimate the bloodthirstiness of radical Islamists. Yet Israel is not supposed to defend itself against these dirty bastards in nightshirts? Israel is supposed to roll over and let these bastards walk all over them?

Israel was born in a den of snakes hellbent on its destruction since day one. They have survived and will continue to survive, of that I have no doubt.

But what I cannot abide is the world's support--damn--of my own church's support--of purely evil, bloodthirsty zealots who show no compunction against murdering innocents, nor any respect for life. Period.
