World Opinion Creates Failures

These days, too many of the world's leaders are falling under the spell of "world opinion". It happens here all the time. If someone in Belgium disapproves of executing a 17 year old murderer, no matter the circumstances, then by George, it can't be done. This is the same sort of thinking that has Israel's head honchos in serious hot water with their own citizens. There is right, and there is wrong, and backing down from Hezbollah was extremely wrong. I don't see this as a victory for the Israelis, or any other freedom loving people, which includes a large part of the United States. I don't count the loony left, since they seem dead set on destroying anything and everything this country stands for. 70% of the Israeli citizens are seriously ticked with the pull out. The UN imposed "cease fire" only emboldens the bad guys. I still stand with Israel!
