Tell 'Em Dan!

From coverage of yesterday's rally in New York comes this great quote from Israel's U.N. ambassador, Dan Gillerman: "To those countries in there who claim that we're using disproportionate force, I have only this to say: You're damn right we are. Because if your cities were shelled the way ours were, if your citizens were terrorized the way ours are, you would use much more force than we are using."

Props to senators Hillary Clinton and Frank Lautenberg for attending the rally and speaking in Israel's defense. By the way, it's quite noteworthy that the rally's participants called for peace and resolution. At the same time, Muslims rallying in Berlin chanted things like "death to Israel."

The only question that I have for Dan is - Why aren't you using more force

I agree with the world that it's disproportionate force, nowhere near enough.
