Not that she was alone in condemning the evilnastybad anti-Israel bias of the Reuters news agency, but you can't expect me to keep track of all the fuckheads.

So the Jerusalem Post reports:

Security officials suspect Jewish terrorists behind Palestinian school bombing
By MARGOT DUDKEVITCH

Security officials told Israel Radio Tuesday evening they suspected that a bomb placed in a Palestinian school in the West bank, which wounded five children when it went off in the morning, was planted there by Jewish terrorists.

Debated adding emphasis, and decided against it. Did use it for this write-up from lgf:

The Jerusalem Post reports that Jewish militants are being blamed for an explosion in a Palestinian school in the West bank.

This was noted in the comments, and given a rather snippy response.

Mostly, though, there's talk of losing the moral high ground and speculation that this was a Palestinian bomb-making class gone awry.

They see no contradiction here, of course.

It's impossible to have an intelligent conversation with someone convinced they occupy the moral high ground. They tend to hear you claiming their opponents do, when you're just pointing out that no such animal exists.

Decided against using the alternate title, too. The next one will have a (four) in it, though.

i've been scrolling down today's posts wanting to chime in with a perky "ditto!" on everything but decided against it, until now.

yeah, there's that "moral high ground" again--pretty hard to find when you live in a swamp. as for me, i have this built in radar that kind of sends me slithering down in the other direction. i assume that i'm at the bottom and working my way back up. that's what i learned about morality from the xtians (before i jumped ship and decided to swim instead, realizing the ship was sinking) and, gulp, uh,...a.a. the buddhists have something about that as well in their doctrine of karma. you don't look down on anyone but remind yourself that every human experience you see is a mirror of your own. but that's that danged yellow oriental blasphemy, hoohah, praise the lord and pass the ammunition...

now you see, this is why i admire you, Aaron, for you have the fortitude to read this stuff every day. it is also why i get fussy at you, because you phrase your links in a way that i cannot resist clicking them. and i go to these places that get me upset.

this is good for me. i just had to bitch a little ( at the moronic racist fucknozzles over there at lgf).

you see, i read stuff like that and i feel something slip in my mind, a gear perhaps. it's almost a snapping sound. i go there, i hear that, i click back here and take some deep breaths.

this is good for me. *sigh* isn't it?
