Words fail at the hypocrisy of terrorist spokesliars

Posted on 12/14/2006 by Meryl Yourish

I’m not really sure why the JPost thought to get the terrorists’ point of view on the recent Israeli Supreme Court ruling that targeted assassinations were not illegal. But they did, and as a result, we get this:

Hussein A-Sheikh, a senior Tanzim official in the West Bank, criticized the High Court’s ruling on targeted killings on Thursday afternoon, saying “it is a disgrace that a judicial body in Israel grants legitimacy to targeted killings,” Israel Radio reported.

But wait. Lest you think that’s not nearly enough hypocrisy for one day, you get this:

Fahmi Az-Za’arir, Fatah spokesman in the West Bank, said on Thursday that the High Court’s ruling allowing the continuation of targeted killings was “criminal” and marked a disgrace for the Israeli judicial system.

Az-Za’arir said that “it is inconceivable that the highest judicial authority in Israel makes the policy of targeted killings organized and legitimate,” Israel Radio reported

Feel free to do a Google search on how many times palestinian terrorists called the murder of civilians—including children—“legitimate resistance” operations.

I’ll just sit here wishing for the deaths of both spokesliars, preferably by the “disgrace” and “criminal” action of targeted killings.

    I don’t see any hypocrisy here, Meryl. They’re against targeted killings and they’re consistent in that.

    Random, mass killings they’re OK with, especially if it’s Jews. But they haven’t been against mass killing of Jews and they’ve also been consistent on that.

    I don’t think they are guilty of hypocrisy. Of almost every other savagery you can think of, yes, but not that.

    OK Alex, you beat me to it. Also you forgot to mention that the Arabs require that only Arabs are allowed to kill others because only they are capable of leaving it up to Allah to decide who will die. Everyone else tries to kill only those that the human being wants dead.

    I think that Jonathan provides a more in-depth and measured analysis of this issue. The issue was not some knee-jerk one but does contain nuance that is of importance to our culture.
