Flytilla, the Sequel: Losers. Lufthansa is not allowing the Flytidiots (Elder’s coinage, I believe) to fly on their airlines, cancelling reservations in Germany. Good for them. Of course they’re accusing Israel of violating international law.
However, in their statement, the fly-in organizers warned that passengers “will arrive, as expected, at airports this weekend,” adding that the move constituted a violation of international law.
Name the law that demands Israel must accept anyone who tries to enter. I believe–now I’m not a lawyer, mind you, but I think I got this one–that it is exactly the opposite, and each nation gets to determine who, how, and when people are allowed entry. As for the fictional state of “Palestine”–well, it doesn’t exist yet, does it? So go ahead, crybabies. We’ll call the wah!mbulance for you.
Once again, the propagandists: Why do major newspapers give op-ed space to lying propaganda from enemy nations and terrorists? (Of course I know it’s for the publicity. That was rhetorical.) There is nothing right about allowing the foreign minister of Iran to act the aggrieved innocent who is only doing what the U.S. suggested 45 years ago. By the way, 45 years ago, Iran was an ally of the U.S., not a nation that chants “Death to America! Death to Israel!” at every big holiday. And there’s the minor issue of constantly calling for the elimination of Israel. Shyeah. Iran doesn’t want nuclear weapons. And I’m going to convert to Islam.
If this were a novel, it would be called “foreshadowing”: Kim Jong Whatever ordered a “satellite” launch. It failed. I love the headline: “N. Korea suffers major blow as rocket crashes.” No, it wasn’t North Korea that lost face. It was Whatever Jong Il Kimmie. Oh, by the way, the launch violated all kinds of deals. Will there be consequences? Of course not. God, I wish someone would go into that country and kill every military and political leader. I feel sorrier for the poor people of Korea than almost any other nation.
Why the IDF keeps winning: Because it is a thinking, changing organization. Read this excellent piece on exactly how the IDF improves its people and techniques.
