Since America has gotten involved in the Libyan civil war, the streets of American cities have been full of left-wing anti-war demonstrators reminiscent of the demonstrations against Iraq during the Bush Administration.
Oh, wait. No they haven’t.
Which is weird. Is it possible that THIS war for oil is OK because of who is in the White House? Could it be that the left is hypocritical?
Unfortunately, it’s a lot more sinister than that. How was Saddam Hussein different from Mubarak of Egypt and Qaddafi of Libya? One important difference is that Hussein was a threat to Israel and Mubarak and Qaddafi were/are not.
Put that together with the fact that Obama has been in favor of the popular uprisings in Egypt and Libya but not the popular uprising in Iran and you have a definite pattern emerging.
When both Mubarak and Qaddafi are gone, two major obstacles to the elimination of Israel will be gone and popular sentiment against the beleaguered country will hold sway.
I have never understood the left’s hatred for Israel and love for the Palestinians, but I guess I can just add that to the list of things I don’t understand on the loony left.
