ISRAEL lashed out yesterday at the "hypocrisy" of the international community over its threats to expel Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat, but vowed it would not back down.

"When it comes to defending a terrorist like Yasser Arafat the world mobilises, but when women and children are killed in the streets of Israel, the UN Security Council is silent -- it's hypocrisy," a senior Israeli official said.

"Despite this unjustified criticism, Israel will not modify the decision taken in principle Thursday by the security cabinet to remove Yasser Arafat at an opportune moment."

(snipped the rest)

The UN Security Council isn't silent about Palestinian terrorism, by the way. That's a total lie.

1. For anyone who thinks otherwise

This is concrete proof that the dog does indeed wag the tail and not the other way around.

2. Wha?

I try not to say that anymore but just could not help it.
Funny how some of these Zionists act and sound just like Republicans.
Hypocrisy indeed.

3. Ironic.....

This benefits both Hamas and Likud. Hamas now will look for an opportunity to act against Israel so that Israel will take out their secular rival. Israel will look for an opportunity to provoke Hamas and so the future looks bleak for Mr. Arafat and for Israel as a consequence. It's ironic how Likud and Hamas work hand in hand at every juncture and how the future of Israel is in Mr. Arafats hands, something that his long time adversary, Mr. Sharon has gift wrapped.

4. UN hypocrisy

And when it comes to adhering to UN resolutions, Israel refuses.
