The Palestinians’ real tragedy is that they have not been able to produce a Nelson Mandela. Every single day, Muslims are killed by Muslims. You do not see a single Muslim leader get up and say, “Enough is enough.” It’s nearly as if we live in a world where if Christians kill Muslims, it’s a crusade. If Jews kill Muslims, it’s a massacre. And when Muslims kill Muslims, it’s the Weather Channel. Nobody cares.–Israeli Ambassador to the UN Dan Gillerman in his Sunday Q&A with Deborah Solomon, in which Solomon also muses perhaps Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is “just a short man who needs to pontificate.”
I’m not sure who should be more insulted there, Gillerman or short people.
