Double standard
Flouting the international opinion and all norms of humanity, Israeli soldiers killed 9 unarmed innocent peace activists in the international maritime territory while they were on the way to Gaza with humanitarian aid on 31 May 2010. This audacity and boastful aggression has been denounced worldwide. But the saddest part of it is that the USA has failed to understand and evaluate the world sentiment. It has once again failed to denounce the fiend Israeli despot and interposed in taking a lenient resolution in the security council of the UN.
America is the only member country in the Security Council which objected to taking a harsh and effective resolution against Israel this time. When a single Israeli is killed in their country, the USA screeches against any such killing and assist Israel make a netherworld in the Palestinian territory without considering who is innocent. But when their ally Israel massacres hundreds of unarmed innocent public in Palestine they used to either remain dumb founded or eulogise the action.
How long should it continue in the Middle-East? It is high time for the people of the world to rise against the double standards of the USA.
