I made the point the other day that Israel is a soverign country and that is why Murtha sounds senile when he says the U.S. should order a cease fire. Gary Gross fleshes out the point and says it better than I can (read it all):
Murtha: I’ll Surrender For Israel, Too
Yes, that’s a sarcastic take on another out-of-touch Murtha statement. (H/T: Captain Ed)
Mr. Murtha, speaking yesterday at a Post-Gazette editorial board meeting, was asked if he favored a cease-fire in the campaign north of Israel’s border. “I think so,” he said.
“I think it would be very difficult to justify continuing on.”
That’s the epitome of intellectual laziness. It’s simple “to justify continuing on.”
The justification is made by saying that a sovereign nation has a right to defend itself against any foreign enemy, especially against a terrorist organization that’s stated that it wants Israel eliminated.
It’s time that the people of Pennsylvania’s Twelfth District ask Rep. Murtha why it’s difficult to justify the doctrine of self defense. I’d bet that the vast majority of CD-12 residents wouldn’t agree with Murtha’s statement.
What’s more disgusting to me is that Murtha isn’t satisfied with losing wars for the U.S.
