Religious Left: Judge Not (Well, Unless It's Israel)

Marxist crimes? Acceptable.

Islamic repression? Boys will be boys.

Abortion? No problem whatsoever.

But Israel?

Now that's something the Religious Left does hold in abhorence!

Check out Mark Tooley's report of how the World Council of Churches -- who never took the time to strongly criticize the Khmer Rouge genocide in Cambodia, the forced famine in Ethiopia, the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, the murderous rampages of tyrants like Saddam Hussein and so on -- took less than 24 hours to condemn Israel’s “deplorable” interception of a “peace” flotilla trying to bust the blockade of Hamas-ruled Gaza.

Good reporting.
