Civilian Casualties: Part VI

Re: our irregular series, aimed at blunting the highly successful propaganda war being waged by the Iranian Army and Intelligence Services, aka "Hezbollah" gets a boost from Israeli PM Olmert in an interview appearing in the London Times:
The difference between us and Hezbollah is that when we kill innocent people we consider it a failure, when they kill innocent people they consider it a success.

Tell me, who are they aiming at when they shoot already 2800 rockets on Haifa, Hanariya, Akko, Sefat, Afula and the rest of the places, if not to kill innocent people? So I’m sorry for every individual that was killed that was not involved.

And by the way, how do you really know that 400 innocent civilians were killed? How do you know who is innocent and who is not? Why? This is not an army. They don’t wear uniforms that distinguish them from other civilians. We didn’t attack any of the Christian quarters of Beirut. We didn’t attack any of the Christian residential areas in any part of Lebanon. We attacked only those areas where they had the Katyusha launchers, where they had the missile launchers, where they had the command positions of Hezbollah, where they had the storage houses, the logistic centres and so on and so forth.

So the fact that people were killed there who were not dressed in uniforms doesn’t mean that they were innocent civilians. There were Hezbollah people, they are the terrorists. Did you ever see terrorists dressed with military uniforms like we have in our army? No.

Exactly. Bonus points for Mr. Olmert who tells it like it is. (Bold text courtesy HazZzMat.)

Folks, it's 1938 and counting. I wonder when, or if, the MSM is going to wake up to the fact that the Islamofascists are playing them like a collective Stradivarius. Better, I would guess, for the Free World (or what's left of it) to be terminated by 7th century jihadists than to help Chimpy BushMcHitler preserve what's left of our culture and values. At least for the MSM and their "intellectual" friends, the appeasers, the heirs-apparent to Neville Chamberlain.

Hat tip to Power Line.
