Spiral of Equivalency
(Townhall.com) Joel Mowbray - Intentionally killing civilians from America, Europe, or Asia (or almost anywhere else) makes you a terrorist - but intentionally killing innocent Jews in Israel merely makes you a "militant," at least in the eyes of the "mainstream" media. The USA Today’s editorial page recently informed readers that "both Israeli and Palestinian leaders are captives of fanatical extremists," as if a democratically-elected government seeking to protect its citizens from mass murderers is on a par with a self-appointed dictatorship aiding and abetting those same mass murderers in the intentional slaughter of innocent civilians.
