‘Islamic Conference Unites Over Israel’
So Secretary General Ban Ki-moon of the United Nations called on Israel to stop the disproportionate use of excessive force against the Palestinians causing many deaths among civilians including children [Foreign, “Islamic Conference Unites Over Israel,” March 14, 2008].
As usual, he doesn’t mention the constant rocket attacks and suicide bombings that have likewise injured and killed so many Israeli civilians including children.
He conveniently overlooks the fact that Hamas and Hezbollah, among other terror organizations, are dedicated to the annihilation of Israel and its citizens.
As the situation worsens, who is brave enough to step in and put a stop to this madness before it spills over into neighboring countries?
