Nobel Winner Defends Israel's Actions
[Irish Times] Ronan McGreevy - Nobel prize-winning physicist Steven Weinberg told an Irish audience Wednesday that Israel was the "most exposed salient" in a war between liberal democracies and Muslim theocracies. He said the conflict between Israel and Hamas was part of a wider conflict that included the Madrid, London and Mumbai bombings, all of which had nothing to do with Israel. Weinberg said no country would have behaved differently had it been subject to the rocket attacks on civilians faced by Israel.
