The Middle East from the Left

Yes, I got my feet wet in the swamps of the Kos Kids Animal Farm and Petting Zoo again, but only because what I find there are so damnably hilarious.

First up, the “Delicate Monster”:

Maybe Benjamin Franklin had it right…insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results.  Not that we would expect anyone in this administration to notice, but with each errant bomb that kills more Lebanese children, the U.S. position becomes less defensible and the Israeli position becomes more insane–and so does our own position. Why?

Benjamin Franklin was right; doing the same thing over and over is crazy, which is why we’re not demanding Israel slow down the military forces and submit to a cease-fire.

That has been done over and over and over again and were currently looking at the results: Terrorists killing innocent Israeli civilians because Hezbollah is bent on genocide.

So, because we’ve seen what happens when Israel kicks ass (See Jordan and Egypt), we’re letting them do it their way.

Next up, I just had to post this one to see if I’m seeing it correctly.

The Baculum King quoted this news story about cops infiltrating an anti-war group,

Two Oakland police officers working undercover at an anti-war protest in May 2003 got themselves elected to leadership positions in an effort to influence the demonstration, documents released Thursday show.

He then goes on to suggest that

I think we should expand this principle to Iraq, see if we can’t work our people into leadership positions within the insurgency.

I cannot really tell what he means by this; either he wants to control the insurgents to calm them or just to be a leader, but even all the way through the comments, nothing about his motives for this plan are alluded to, they only bitch about COINTELPRO.

However, I did find it funny that the folks yakking about this are probable 90% middle class white folks who wouldn’t blend into any ME insurgent group well at all.
