At center stage, a repeat performance, that never gets new, please welcome revelation and hypocrisy!

JERUSALEM (AP) — Israeli naval commandos stormed a flotilla of ships carrying aid and hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists to the blockaded Gaza Strip on Monday, killing at least 10 passengers in a predawn raid that set off worldwide condemnation and a diplomatic crisis. Israel said its commandos were attacked by knives, clubs and live fire from two pistols wrested from soldiers after they rappelled from a helicopter to board one of the vessels. Dozens of activists and at least 10 Israeli soldiers were wounded in the bloody confrontation in international waters. Reaction was swift and harsh, with a massive protest breaking out in Turkey, Israel’s longtime Muslim ally, which unofficially supported the mission. Ankara announced it would recall its ambassador and call off military exercises with the Jewish state. The White House said in a written statement that the United States “deeply regrets” the loss of life and injuries and was working to understand the circumstances surrounding this “tragedy.”
That’s the news folks.

Now comes the revelation and hypocrisy. (For purposes of analysis only, I will use the premise that the Israeli’ action was unprovoked and flotilla of activists were peace mongers.) Watch the world condemnation that befalls on Israel. It is happening as I write. Turkey called off planned joint military exercises with Israel. The United Nations Security Council called an emergency session for later on Monday. France officials stated that they were “profoundly shocked.” European officials are calling for an inquiry. Syrian President Bashar al—Assad and Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri said on Monday that Israel’s attack on a flotilla of aid bound for Gaza threatens to ignite a war in the region. Assad and Hariri also “demanded the Arab League, the Organization of Islamic Conference, the Security Council and the international community to act immediately” and put an end to Israel’s actions. When it comes to condemning Israel, get in line. Assuredly, this is a prediction, no later than tomorrow, President Obama will make a statement that either condemns Israel or mourns the loss of the ten lives, or does both. Why? Because bashing Israel is in. Israel is the last nation in the world to stand tough to Islam. I know, I know coexist, coexist, coexist. Except some things simply can’t coexist. Ever hear of the mongoose and the snake. In any event, back to the revelation and hypocrisy about to be on center stage.

The revelation, what will be revealed, is the invasive Evil that is vying for top theocrat (government and religion, combined in one leadership) in the world. The Evil has contempt for Israel because Israel is an impediment or road block to Evil’s plan. And Israel and it’s people are resistant enduring folks. (See Jesus Christ and Holocaust) But alas, Israel and it’s people have toughened up. They tend to do the right thing rather than the popular thing (in the world) and that at times may include what happened this morning with the flotilla. I am not endorsing it or condemning it. I, at this time, don’t know what happened. But unlike our President, I’m not yet mourning any deaths. I don’t know for sure if they were bad guys or good guys that got killed. I have read that a high-ranking naval official displayed a box confiscated from the boat containing switchblades, slingshots, metal balls and metal bats which does not comport with my idea of a peaceful protestor. I have also read that the “Freedom Flotilla” has strong ties to Hamas, a quasi terrorist organization. Still, let’s wait and see what the merits of the incident turn out to be.

What we don’t have to wait for is proof of Evil in the world and its insidious infiltration of our governess and a lot of people. The Evil will lash out in an comprehensive, yet uninformed, condemnation of Israel. Which is fine, if Israel did behave wrongfully. But where was the “lashing out” on other wrongful acts? Here’s a list of wrongful acts: Get ready it’s a long one. The numbers before each act are the date, dead and injured, followed by a description. On second thought, I will conclude and then allow you to scan the list, predominantly Islamic extremist in root motive.

But I digress. So the world is going to lash out against Israel. Let me ask this question, to get the right perspective so to speak. Where is the Security Council meeting when North Korea torpedoed a South Korean naval ship? Nowhere yet, it appears. The Secretary General Ban Ki-moon joined the United States in ratcheting up pressure on North Korea by recommending U.N. Security Council action for North Korea’s torpedo attack. North Korea vows retaliation if the U.N. Security Council makes a move. So let’s put this in perspective. Israel has an incident which we don’t know the details about yet. The world leaders lash out. All of the below occur in this calendar year alone, North Korea torpedoes a South Korean naval vessel, and the world employs patience and relative silence. Go figure.

Why? Because there is Evil in our midst, that’s why. All of the below are working for evil, thus they get a relative pass. Israel is working for the good, they don’t get a pass, they get condemned; very revealing and very hypocritical indeed. Typical of the dark side that has invaded our world. Time to face reality folks and start calling them as you see them.

That’s my Reetzality for the day.

Thanks for the read.
