Michael Rosen:
In the heart of western governments there is a special human breed known as 'Heartless Bastards' who are at this very moment figuring out which pretext, justification and alibi for war and genocide will work best to convince western populations that killing hundreds of thousands of people in the Middle East is a good thing.
To achieve this, any or all of the following, (or versions thereof), the Heartless Bastards say:
No one is starving
We're sad about what's going on
We're very sad about what's going on
We regret what's going on
We've always wanted a ceasefire
We love ceasefires
We keep saying, let's have a ceasefire
We are unable to say whether we are or are not or would or would not, or might or might not supply arms to Israel
We're only killing genocidal Islamist maniacs
Israel is surrounded by billions of people who want to destroy it.
If we didn't kill people the Jews will be liquidated in another Holocaust
The Holocaust

This is about Western Civilisation.
This is about self-defence
This is about the Jewish homeland
The Jewish homeland is very old and very big.
The Jewish homeland is getting bigger every day and this is good for everyone.
Benjamin Netanyahu might not be everyone's cup of tea but he cuts the mustard, so smell the coffee.
We have to defend our strategic interests.
