"Poor judgement is now a worthy of economic sanction? Have the nations who proclaim moral standing deplored the murder of Israelis? Those without moral authority crowing only wake up those in their own barnyard."

I don't believe that the standards of dictatorships should be used to argue for or against freedom of expression. Freedom of expression is a right that is unique to democracies and must be defended and criticized using democratic standards.

It seems that there are other agendas operating in the ME. Agendas which may well backfire. Syria has worked very hard to get in the good graces of the EU. That may well be ruined now thanks to the embassy burnings.

Israeli murders, Palestinian murders, the one side deplores as does the other side.
