A thought on the appropriateness of Israel's self-defence measures as the campaign to neutralize the Hamas terrorist machinery moves into ground-campaign mode tonight.
"Those who scream 'disproportionate' think - grotesquely - that not enough Israelis have been killed. If anything has been 'disproportionate,' it's been Israel's refusal to take action during the years when its southern citizens have been terrorized by rockets and other missiles raining down on them from Gaza. No other country in the world would have sat on its hands for so long in such circumstances."Melanie Phillips, The Spectator

Like many sites that advocate for a moderate, Israel-friendly viewpoint, we unfortunately receive abusive, offensive and racist messages on a routine basis. We want it to be clear that we reserve the right to reject them in our absolute discretion. Racist and Israel-hating sites abound on the web. So not being allowed to play in our sandbox can hardly be called a hardship. Anonymous postings or messages where email address of the poster is hidden from us will generally not be accepted.
