Our historically illiterate friends, the Saudis.
Mr. Ghazi Algosaibi, the Saudi ambassador to Britain and Kipling to the more, shall we say, incendiary of the Palestinians, waxes flatulent:
"Mr Algosaibi said Israel was using its military might against civilians who were defending themselves with the only weapons they had available, their bodies.
>>Just their bodies. And those shiploads of Iranian weapons. Does the name "Karine A" ring any bells there, cupcake? Didn't think so. Otherwise, the machinegunning of 5 year old Israeli girls in their beds is pretty hard to explain, if they don't have any other weapons. Right?>>
'This is a war of occupation, far more severe than anything the Germans did when they occupied Europe in World War Two,' he said at the University of Westminster, central London."
>>Oh, of course it is. The damage done to 10 acres of Jenin far outweighs anything the Nazis did in Europe. Like, say, the Blitz did to central London in 1940. Right where you are speaking now....
Plus, there's that little matter of what the Nazis did to the Jews. But you probably don't have much of a problem with that, do you, Mr. Ambassador?
