Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan on Wednesday said Israel's blockade and bombing of Gaza in response to Palestinian militant group Hamas' attack was a disproportionate response amounting to a "massacre," but repeated Ankara's offer to mediate.

Americans were killed, raped, and taken hostage, the United States should invoke NATO to stand by its defense. Turkey, as a member of NATO, needs to get a board else resign from NATO.

When muslims kill infidels, it’s a “holy war.” When the infidels fight back, it’s a “massacre.”

For a clear understanding of how this dynamic works, see the following excellent article by the Great Greenfield.

Bullshit the Gaza strip does not look like Berlin 1945 from the air yet! But here is to hoping it gets some”urban renewal” that it occupants so richly deserve!

Holding 2 million civilians hostage until 150 are released seems a bit disproportionate.

“Armenian massacre ring a bell.”

Israeli arms quietly helped Azerbaijan retake Nagorno-Karabakh, to the dismay of region’s Armenians

There’s something satisfying about watching bombs explode on Hamas with REMs “shiny happy people” playing

There’s a lot of Gaza beginning to look like Stalingrad. The ruble will be a problem for the IDF when the occupation begins. Looks like it will be an urban warfare nightmare. I bet the our neocon contingent here would love to deploy our boys into that catastrophe.

No more of this “proportionate response” idiocy. All of Hamas must be obliterated. All of them. Hamas started this. Israel must finish it.

If it weren’t that Turkey controls the passage from the Black Sea to the Mediterranean, it wouldn’t have been invited into NATO at all. And it’s the one thing that keeps NATO from kicking them out.

If our boys are dopey enough to go then yes, but first the war must be widened.

Fat chance of Erdogan taking the fleeing Palestinians in. Although they like the Palestinian as victim of the West story line, nobody in the Middle East wants these leeches infesting their country.
