NEITHER OBAMA NOR CLINTON WILL ISSUE AN UNAMBIGUOUS CONDEMNATION OF THE PLO

Marco Rubio's noted how neither the POTUS nor the dreadful Democrat candidate running in the next election will acknowledge the PLO's guilt in the current incitement to commit jihadism (Hat tip: Accuracy in Media):

“Reminiscent of the days when Yasser Arafat talked peace in English and jihad in Arabic,” Rubio writes, “Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas — a man President Obama regularly hails as a peacemaker — is inciting the bloodshed. ‘Every drop of blood that has been spilled in Jerusalem is holy blood as long as it was for Allah,’ he recently declared on Palestinian television.”

The Obama administration has responded by calling on both Palestinians and Israelis to “restore calm,” Rubio says, “as if Israel is somehow to blame for being the victim of terrorism.”

All this does is put more innocent lives at risk. It's practically classic moral equivalence that does little more than allow the PLO to get away with their offenses and won't hold them genuinely responsible for the being the monsters they truly are. This is the problem with today's leftists.
