Why We Like Israel More Than You...
Solomonia has a great post fantasizing what Colin Powell should have said at a useless arab conference:
In my imaginary, perfect fantasy world, Colin Powell would seize the mic and say the following:
"OK, it's true. We do favor Israel over you, and I'm going to be very frank with you and tell you why.
We favor Israel over you because Israel is a democracy and you are not.
We favor Israel over you because Israel has a free press and you do not.
We favor Israel over you because Israel enshrines freedom of speech and expression and you do not.
We favor Israel over you because Israel practices freedom of religion and you do not.
We favor Israel over you because Israel does not persecute its homosexual citizens and you do.
We favor Israel over you because Israel has Nobel winners in the Sciences and Universities that foreigners consider attending. You have none of either.
We favor Israel over you because Israel's press, government and religious establishment do not incite hatred against us and yours do.(/snip)
And there is much more...Go check out the entire post, for it is very good.
