He asks if Israel has a "right to defend itself." Sure they do, on their own dime. He complains about the suicide bombers=97but if you invade someone else's land, steal their property, occupy it for 35 years, and then are faced with monstrous attacks on your own cvilians even while you humiliate and ethnically cleanse their civilians every day of the week, don't be surprised if you get what Chalmers Johnson calls "blowback." Israel made its own bed=97now, the Israelis must sleep in it.
Gee, it's always Israel with these Objectivists=97why is that? For a philosophy that disdains "tribalism," hates religion, and deifies "reason," isn't it a little odd to be (literally) flying the Israeli flag? Yet the latter-day saints of the Objectivist faith have taken p the cause of Israel more fiercely than the most fanatical mystics, either Zionist or Christian. Here is a country based on religion, whose existence is justified by Biblical passages, founded by radical socialists, and which regularly bulldozes the private property of the original inhabitants into oblivion. How do we explain the heirs of Ayn Rand lining up behind Labor Zionism and the heirs of Vladimir Jabotinsky? What a coalition: Ariel Sharon, Pat Robertson and Leonard Peikoff. They deserve each other.
