The Associated Press: Worldwide protests staged against Israel's offensive in Gaza
Talkback

Some posters have expressed dismay because they remember no such world-wide outrage when in the past the women and children being killed were Jews. They say this is hypocritical.

They`re right. It is hypocritical. There is a double standard. In a better world, the death of a woman, child, or bystander would create the same emotional revulsion no matter the victim`s race, nationality, or religion and no matter the history or nature of the conflict.

Let us pray that someday it is so.

Now are there any here who want to deal with their own personal hypocrisy and express their outrage over the deaths of the women, children, and bystanders killed in Gaza during the last few days?

Sincerely,



Timothy
