Critics Should Note Moral Superiority When They Witness It
Iran has long been affiliated with organizations and nations dedicated to the destruction of Israel. The current leader Ahmadinejad has been a Holocaust denier who has denigrated and vilified Jews. Iran has opened hostilities by her proxies [Hezbollah and Hamas] twice in the past three years. Combined, the proxies have all of Israel within missile range. The proxies are indifferent to anything that might happen to Gaza or Lebanon in retaliation for the attacks on Israel.
Many Iranian missiles have struck Israel causing the deaths of civilians. No Israeli weapons have hit Iran, although by international law and precedence she has every right to do so.
The author calls Israel a 'bully' because she has nuclear weapons and the 22 nations that threaten her existence do not. Israel has not boasted of her superior weapons. She remains intact after seven preemptive wars conducted by Muslims and three Intifadas intended to disrupt her.
Who is trying to bully whom? The author sits safely in democratic Canada free to cast aspersions courtesy of the US Navy. I wonder how long he would last in Tehran without a visit from the authorities.
In the last few months, fifteen Iranian missiles have exploded in my city. If the fifteen had hit Ottawa or Washington, Iran would have become a radioactive waste dump.
It is about time for critical westerners to recognize the moral superiority of Israelis.
