When Evil Is Applauded
[Jerusalem Report] Robert Horenstein - Albert Einstein once said, "The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it." Today, the world is a dangerous place because evil is applauded at the UN, given airtime on U.S. national television and radio, honored at an interfaith gathering, and given serious consideration for inclusion on the UN's most powerful body, the Security Council. An international community ready to confront Iran would look and feel different. And the Security Council, rather than acting like helpless bystanders, would refer Ahmadinejad to the International Criminal Court to stand trial for inciting genocide.
