Comments on: The fierce irrelevance of Roger Cohen http://www.yourish.com/2009/03/26/7068 Cutting straight to the point Mon, 13 Feb 2012 02:14:35 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.1.1 By: Michael Lonie http://www.yourish.com/2009/03/26/7068/comment-page-1#comment-36423 Michael Lonie Fri, 27 Mar 2009 00:33:36 +0000 http://www.yourish.com/?p=7068#comment-36423 If he wants to watch what Hamas does and not what it says we might note that Hamas murders Palestinian Arabs belonging to other political factions, attacks American diplomatic personnel visiting Gaza to hand out scholarships to Arab students, kidnaps Arab Christian girls and forcibly converts them to Islam. Oh yes, it also tries its best to destroy Israel and kill all the Jews. It does not get too far on that (so far) only because of the inadequate nature of its weapons and the incompetence of its fighters. Give them time and both will improve. The arrant stupidity of the conventional wisdom of the US media and political elites is almost beyond belief. Do these people pay no attention at all to factual evidence? Nope.
