(Wo)manhandled

If this were a photograph of an Israeli soldier manhandling a Palestinian woman like this, I can comfortably say that the whole wide world would be on fire right now:

An Israeli police officer detains a Jewish settler during a protest against Israel's plans to remove 13 families from a building in the West Bank city of Hebron December 3, 2008. Hundreds of settlers have come to the Jewish enclave in recent days to protest Israel's plans to remove 13 families from a building in accordance with a high court ruling. Settlers moved into the building in 2007 saying they had purchased it from a Palestinian. Palestinian Faiz Rajabi said the building belongs to him and denies selling it to the settlers.

Who knows? Maybe the IDF's public relations department has finally decided that it's time they become equal-opportunity abusers.

Or, more accurately, that not a single person in the entire world would lift a finger of outrage at abuse of this particular community.

Here is what a handful of random people think about this article. But first, the fine print:
The opinions expressed here, even where approved for display, do not necessarily reflect the opinions of this website, the management, or any other entity or organization, with the exception of the Vast Zionist Conspiracy. Those opinions we represent in style, yo. Please keep the language in these comments clean, as this is intended to be a family-friendly, work-friendly website. Comments not compliant with this policy will be edited for content where necessary. Abusive or otherwise illegal comments will be reported to the proper authorities, up to and including the aforementioned Vast Zionist Conspiracy. The Management cannot and will not be held responsible for commenters making a spectacle of themselves, even if The Management are the said commenters in question. In other words, don't take yourself so seriously, folks. We're all here to discuss the news, and more importantly, to have fun. Now go get yourself into some OCD treatment program—you obviously need it if you actually read all of this mess.

*EOZ followed the beginning of that story a few years ago. The palestinians tried to go after the guy who sold JEWS a building in "their" lands. That was almost as bad (to them) as giving a starving jew bread.

Sad state when even the jews are kicking themselves out of their lands. For so long, they have fought against other people throwing the jews out of their lands, and now the Jews themselves are doing it FOR the enemies.

Strange screwed up world.
