Just when I think I know what my next blog article is going to be, along comes something irresistible at another blogger's site. This time, my find comes from Benning's Writing Pad. Below is a lengthy excerpt and is worth your time:

We are called upon to safeguard the terrorists and denounce the people who have been attacked, again and again, by fanatics.READ THE REST.
"The World continues to plead with our nation to convince Israel to seek a 'path for peace', as if that has not been tried again and again...."
