The scene changed when 10,000 people were hacked to death daily for 3 months and the world was silent. It continued to Kosovo where i watch with horror how NATO was attacking a country that was fighting element of AL Qaeda (KLA) WITHOUT a UN approval or vote and the left was silent (Clinton was in power) . Last year when India and pakistan almost went Nuke on each other there wasn’t any “peace rallies” and No Hollywood stars gave any anti war interviews.
So yes every thing changed, i remember as a kid doneting food for the hungery people
in Cambodia were today Darfur doesn’t even make it to news.
As far as Israel is concerned it’s Media are exclusivly leftist (Army radio station ironically being to most leftist of them all). Israel was crushed in the PR war,it lost
it by a KO. Discussing politics and “what the world think about us” is a national pass
time in Israel. So when the media showed it’s biased it pushed centrist Israeli to right
and rightist to the extreme right. Just the fact that you suggest that Israel turned
aggressive with no reason, specially after electing the leftist barak government
shows how badly we lost that war.
Do i have to remind you of the passovef massacre were 30 people were killed while
celebrating passover and the little attention it got comering to Israeli response
in Jenin were much less civilians were killed and every one called it a war crime,
genocide etc. etc.
A lie gets halfway around the world before the truth has a chance to get its pants on.
