Bin Laden Lessons for Israel
(Ynet News) Rafi Israeli - Israel was condemned when it eliminated Hamas' Ahmad Yassin and the Iraqi reactor. The Americans assassinated bin Laden and also hunted and eliminated Saddam Hussein, yet nobody said a word. For every targeted elimination carried out by Israel, it was hit with numerous condemnations and protests, yet the daily U.S. surgical strikes in Yemen, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Libya and Iraq are met with silence. Every time Israel unintentionally harms civilians, the world raises a hue and cry, yet if it happens in Libya, Iraq, Serbia or Kosovo, nobody protests.
