US-Israeli citizen murdered--administration plays it off with moral equivalency

Another attack on a Jewish, U.S. - Israeli dual-citizen by Palestinian Muslims, elicits another verbal response designed to show moral equivalency between Israel and the Hamas-led Palestinians.

The Obama administration "condemned in the strongest possible terms on Friday an attack by knife-wielding Palestinians in the West Bank that resulted in the death of a dual Israeli-US citizen, the State Department said in a statement," as reported by FoxNews.com.

The moral equivalency came when FoxNews.com went on to report that "The death of American Tuvia Yanai Weissman on Thursday underscores the need for all sides to reject violence. . ."

What the hell are they talking about?

The guy was a 21-year-old off-duty IDF soldier shopping with his wife and 4-month-old baby in a supermarket in the West Bank's Binyamin region. A pair of Palestinian Muslim teens went on a stabbing spree in the market injuring another shopper. Tuvia's wife and baby thankfully were in a different aisle when he was attacked--Palestinian terrorists are known for killing Jewish babies.

Weissman was taken to Shaare Zedek Medical Center in Jerusalem but was pronounced dead.

The two Palestinians were shot and wounded by a bystander--giving credence to our Second Amendment, which has been effective in Israel.

Weissman's father eulogized his son: "You loved your daughter, Netta, so much. You took her to see the flowers in the Negev the day before you were murdered. No hate and no enemy will ever stop that."

Rabbi Nathanson, the preparatory leader in the program Tuvia attended also spoke of his former pupil.

"Your wife informed me yesterday that you all had been in a different aisle in the supermarket, you heard screams, and she bent over to cover Netta, and you disappeared. You couldn't listen to screaming and stand back--you were like that--you did not have a weapon because you were off-duty. You fought with your fists, your body, your whole heart," Rabbi Nathanson said as he recounted the conversation he had with Weissman's wife.

State Department spokesman Mark Toner condemned the attack saying that it underscores the need for Israelis and Palestinians to reject violence, reduce tensions and restore calm.

Mark Toner and the entire Obama administration apparently doesn't know what a fatwa is, or they don't want to call any attention to it. To suggest moral equivalency between Israel and the Hamas-controlled Palestinian Authority is not only bizarre and stupid, it's downright evil.
