Any means at all

Filed under: Middle East, Terrorism

Tony Bliar, having finally placed himself outside the scope of any possible human forgiveness, speaks the truth for once:

“You’re up against an ideology that’s prepared to use any means at all, including killing any number of wholly innocent people,” Blair said.

Damn right. We — that is, most of the world — are up against the mindset of murderous scum like you. In the words of former US National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski:

I hate to say this but I will say it. I think what the Israelis are doing today for example in Lebanon is in effect, in effect — maybe not in intent — the killing of hostages. The killing of hostages.

Because when you kill 300 people, 400 people, who have nothing to do with the provocations Hezbollah staged, but you do it in effect deliberately by being indifferent to the scale of collateral damage, you’re killing hostages in the hope of intimidating those that you want to intimidate. And more likely than not you will not intimidate them. You’ll simply outrage them and make them into permanent enemies with the number of such enemies increasing.

Update: At long last, Labour is getting enough. Bliar’s final exit is likely just a few months away.
