Hizballah's Real Goal is Racist: To Free the Middle East Holy Lands of Jews

[Christian Science Monitor] Alan M. Dershowitz - Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of Hizballah, apologized to the families of two Israeli children who were killed by a Hizballah rocket that hit the Christian holy city of Nazareth. He called them shahids, martyrs, even though they did not choose to die at the hands of Hizballah terrorists. The apology was issued because they were Israeli Arabs and not Jews. Hizballah's rockets are aimed at Jews, and earn cheers whenever they kill a Jewish baby or grandmother. No apologies there. The so-called Arab-Israeli conflict represents the first instance since the Holocaust that Jews, as Jews, are being specifically targeted by an international organization that seeks recognition as a legitimate power. Hizballah has threatened to attack Jewish targets outside of Israel as well. UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, UN High Commissioner of Human Rights Louise Arbour, and many within the European Union are condemning Israel for its reasonable military actions to prevent these racist murders. They insist that there is a moral equivalence between the anti-Semitic targeting of Jews by Hizballah and the defensive actions directed by Israel at military targets.
