Раскрываем тему дальше.

Роберт Фиск написал интересную статью про политкорректность в исполнении влиятельных еврейских групп на Западе. В принципе, вариант примерно тот же, что и в любом ином исполнении - но масштабы довольно внушительные.

Вот она, с моими комментариями:
The erosion of free speech (англ.)

I really don't know what happened there. It is pretty clear that the soldier who shot Hurndall did so intentionally; whether it was a case of mistaken identity or he wanted to kill him specifically, or as a member of ISM with which the IDF soldiers could very well have been frustrated - I don't know. Yes, this could be a war crime, likely is. A routine war crime that most armies commit during most wars.

Now, if you read the same story again you are gonna' notice that the ISM was planning to set up a tent that would block Israeli armor from traveling a certain road. Don't you think that sort of thing is - in a direct military sense - quite advantageous to the other side?

And no, ISM is not "right hand of HAMAS"; but that doesn't mean that what ISM does could not be of immediate use to HAMAS - in the military, not ideological sense.

A hellicopter that brings a first aid container to a village in a jungle to help injured wives and children of some rebels can be of military use, since it indicates the disposition of the village. But its humanitarian mission cannot be denied.

An environmental organization that is holding an action at Baikal to attract public attention to the construction of the pipe can be blamed for air pollution, because the activist came to the action site by bus.

Well, I am not saying it's not true. But com'on! The trees. The forest. A?

Being a real woman I feel like I need to have the last word, of course :)

If vegetarians eat vegetables, what do humanitarians eat?
