Message received if not understood

Israeli political commentators are shocked at what they call Obama's "betrayal" of Egyptian leader Hosni Mubarak.
Benjamin Netanyahu has urged his government to refrain from commenting on the situation, lest they add fuel to the fire now burning a path through the middle east, but many outside the government are making their shock and anger known.
The Israelis understand just how damning Obama's comments have been and how everything coming from his administration supports the rioters, not Mubarak.

Nice of them to finally "get it" that Obama is absolutely no friend of Israel.
Actually the Israeli government already knew this; they just didn't understand the depth of his animus towards them.

No riots over this murder

Chicago police officer Thor Soderberg had just finished his shift at the police facility at 61st street and Racine Ave. when Bryant Brewer snuck up behind him and grabbed for the officer's sidearm.

In the ensuing struggle, Brewer managed to gain control of the weapon and kill the officer.

He then proceeded to cross the street and shoot another man before being shot when officers responded to the initial shot.

In Oakland, California we just had riots because an officer that killed a suspect was only found guilty of manslaughter.

There were riots (where many stores were looted) before a trail even happened in the Oakland case because the residents were "outraged" at the wanton act (despite the officer's claim that he thought he had grabbed his Taser).

So, will there be protests in Chicago over this wanton act of murder and attempted murder?

Don't hold your breath.

This Ain't No Tea Party

Arizona has its new immigration law (note: not anti-illegal) and the left is having a fit.
The media are trying to spin the protests against this law as being as or more peaceful than Tea Party rallies while showing video of an aggressive mob harassing police and throwing things.
Riot police have been called to the Arizona protest and have not been called to any Tea Party protests.
Tea Party rallies stay put, they don't leave their (permitted) areas until they are leaving the rally.

I hope this situation is pulling more fence sitters to the right side by showing how desperately wrong the media and leftist supporters of criminal invaders are.
