U.S., Israel Role in Mideast
Aside from being a full-time apologist for Israel, Kirkpatrick engages in systematic perversion of fact. While she eagerly labels the Palestinians and the PLO as terrorists (during World War II I remember popular radio programs that referred to such groups as commandos, guerrillas, freedom fighters, or loyalists), she is quite incapable of labeling Israel’s murder of innocent civilians in Lebanon as state terrorism.
It is with good reason that Kirkpatrick and her Gang of Seven were not highly regarded at the U.N. Kirkpatrick and her double standard manifest a bankrupt belief that we must support Israel at any cost.
