Little Green Footballs has busted Reuters for cropping out an “activist’s” knife from a photo taken on board the Mavi Marmara. The original photo, published by Turkey’s Hurriyet (and, to their credit, by AP) clearly shows one of a group of “activists” standing over a wounded Israeli soldier (in the lower right corner of the [...]
Richard Goldstone: Naïf, Idiot, or Excrement-Peddler?

…or all three?
Richard Goldstone, having read the draft of today’s United Nations resolution which was ultimately approved later in the day—officially endorsing his virulent, anti-Semitic, slanderous report—is reported to have said, “This draft resolution saddens me as it includes only allegations against Israel. There is not a single phrase condemning Hamas as we have done in the report. I hope that the council can modify the text.”
Now, any adult living in today’s world for more than five minutes can tell you that the news is always full of “atrocities” committed by Israel, and full of condemnations of Israel by other countries and organizations for these “atrocities”… while you hear comparatively nothing about the Arab world, with their customs of imprisoning political dissidents, beheading Christians, stoning rape victims, performing forced clitoridectomies on teenage girls, forcing women to be subordinate to their husbands, committing the occasional genocide here and there in Africa, and of course bombing civilian areas and using human shields while committing acts of terrorism.
So, either Goldstone is:
(a) a naïf who miraculously made it this far in his adult life unaware of the twisted ways of the world, and who actually thought he could put out such a sham of a report and not have it immediately snatched up by everyone to be used against Israel and Israel alone, ignoring the few mentions of Hamas in there (get out your magnifying glass…);
(b) an idiot who might have been aware of that global phenomenon, but stupidly thought his report was some kind of magical one that would ward of any such uses, or maybe that he is a special kind of guy who wouldn’t be used like the foolish anti-Semitic tool that he turned out to be; or
(c) an “excrement-peddler” (euphemistically-speaking, of course), who knew exactly what he was doing when he put out that crock of excrement, and is now following it up with more excrement to have you believe that he’s innocent of any such vicious intentions, when he is in reality so obviously full of excrement because he knew what he was doing and just didn’t care.
My vote is with (c) and, I pray, may he get slammed with an equally vicious and slanderous “assessment” on his own Judgment Day.
