THERE’S AN ADAGE YOU ARE LIKELY FAMILIAR WITH. IT SAYS A LIE TRAVELS HALFWAY AROUND THE WORLD BEFORE TRUTH CAN PUT ON ITS PANTS.
THIS HAS BEEN TRUE OF THE FALSE STORY ABOUT A HOSPITAL IN GAZA WHICH HAMAS CLAIMED WAS BOMBED BY ISRAELIS, KILLING AS MANY AS FIVE HUNDRED PEOPLE. DEMONSTRATIONS OUTSIDE U.S. EMBASSIES AND IN THE ARAB STREETS QUICKLY SPRUNG UP. WHEN ISRAEL FOUND AND VIDEO PROVED THAT AN ERRENT ISLAMIC JIHAD MISSILE AIMED AT ISRAEL CIVILIAN AREAS HAD MISFIRED AND WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE HOSPITAL DEATHS, ARAB AND ISLAMIC NATIONS ACTED AS IF THEY HAD NEVER HEARD THE CORRECTION. MUCH OF THE MEDIA – LIKE MSNBC AND THE NEW YORK TIMES, REACTED QUICKLY AND ENGAGED IN THEIR USUAL MORAL EQUIVALENCE WHEN IT COIMES TO ISRAEL AND THOSE WHO WANT TO DESTROY THE JEWISH STATE. THE SQUAD IN CONGRESS DENOUNCED ISRAEL EVEN AFTER THE FACTS WERE KNOWN. DEMONSTRATIONS CONTINUED AROUND THE WORLD AND THE WORTHLESS UNITED NATIONS DID WHAT IT ALWAYS DOES – STANDS AGAINST ISRAEL AND FOR THE TERRORISTS.
WE MUST BE CAREFUL ABOUT INFORMATION COMING FROM THE REGION. START WITH REMEMBERING WHO THE GOOD GUYS ARE – THAT WOULD BE ISRAEL. I’M CAL THOMAS.
