[OPE] Tzipi Livni and the decline of the West

Tzipi Livni said that the Goldstone Commission's report into Israel's
offensive on the Gaza Strip was "based on a perverted system of values." "I
expect the international community to distinguish between murder and
unintentional killing," Livni said, "Operation Cast Lead will be tested by
the parameters of self judgment." (Ha'aretz)

Huh? How is that sort of thinking going to solve any problem? The
"unintentional killing" jive sounds a bit like "collateral damage" where you
bomb a building but oops, there were actually civilians in there. If you
really want a taste of a world gone mad, try this clip

objective about what really happened.
