Kekejaman Israel dan Kebodohan Amerika

Akhir-akhir ini banyak orang mengutuk perbuatan kejam Israel yang menyerang jalur Gaza dan menimbulkan ratusan korban sipil. Tetapi di belahan dunia lain justru ada sebuah negara yang dipimpin oleh tokoh yang sangat berpengaruh -orang yang justru saya rasa tidak waras- menunjukkan pembelaan atas aksi Israel.

Tidak percaya? Begini kutipan berita yang saya dapat

"WASHINGTON--MI: Presiden AS George W. Bush menyatakan gencatan senjata di Jalur Gaza bisa dilakukan jika Hamas tidak lagi melontarkan roket dan rudak ke wilayah Israel.

"Apa yang dilakukan Israel itu jelas membela diri, sedangkan Hamas melakukan kejahatan," kata Bush dalam jumpa persnya, Senin waktu setempat.

Bush menuding Hamas sengaja menggunakan wilayah Jalur Gaza sebagai tempat untuk melancarkan serangan ke warga Israel. "Kalau mau gencatan senjata, Hamas tidak boleh menggunakan Gaza sebagai tempat meluncurkan roket ke Israel," katanya. (http://mediaindonesia.com/index.php?ar_id=NTQ1Nzg=)
