Choosing The Right Side In Conflict: Israel
Poletical ^ | August 16th, 2014 | R. Rados

When choosing a side in conflict, it should be our moral dispositions that trump political correctness and ideology. Morality offers a simple solution to an array of complex problems. Secondly, knowledge and facts are powerful tools for determining which side is worthy of our support. Choosing to support a side that promotes everything that goes against our own common morality makes the least amount of sense. Murder, tyranny, genocide, racism and indiscriminate hatred (or the advocacy of those things) go against our common morality. To most of us, it's incomprehensible to accept any of those things as conducive to the well-being of our families.

Choosing the side of the Nazis would have been viewed as immoral, not just because of its doctrine of genocide and mass murder, but because Nazism goes against democracy, individual freedom and the idea of equality under the law.

With that being said, it's unfathomable to imagine how anyone who values democracy and freedom could refuse to support Israel in its quest to secure its longevity in a hostile region.
