Pro-israel sentiments from sf

I was reading "First Military Attack in Gaza Since Pullout Kills 2" and saw that one blog had commented on it. It wasn't a blog I had heard of before, but this is what SuperMattalica wrote:

I can't understand how Americans could be on the side of the Palestinians, now or ever. Palestinians attack civilians; Israelis attack legitimate terrorist targets. Palestinian democracy is limp at best; Israel has been a democracy for all of its existence. Israel made concessions to get out of Gaza that they didn't have to do, without violence, ahead of schedule; in response, Palestinians held military parades and promised to take over the rest of Israel rather than saying thanks and pledging to make peace. Plus Arafat was a huge liar and jerk (although I guess I can't beat that horse any more).

There are parts I disagree with, but overall this was an excellent synopsis of the issue.
