re: #997 ploome hineni

the arabs want every single imprisoned arab to be realeased from Israeli jails, and yet

the arabs and Egypt complain that if Israel insists on linking a cease fire with the release of Gilad Shalit

the Israelis are trying to destroy the process

/go figure

Its that nice thingie, called ‘double standard’, applied to anything to do with Israeli politics.
The rules are simple: anything the ayrabs do is fine, and needs supporting; anything Israel does is baaad and needs to be supressed or abolished or prevented.

I’ll only be surprised if this double standard is not being applied.
