Why is "butchering your own people" so much more repugnant than butchering other people?
It was just yesterday that French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius was busy lecturing on Assad’s butchery. Fabius concludes that Assad must be smashed and there is no place for him on this earth.
When you view photos of the man on tour it is evident that he owes both his political philosophy and his shirts to the unctuous busybody Bernard-Henri Levy. The shirts are crisp and white and opened several buttons down a la 1980 at the disco.
The political philosophy crisply whites out France’s butchery in Indochina and Algeria in favor of a re-imagined status of unlimited virtue that qualifies Frenchmen to judge who among the worlds butchers may stay and who must be smashed.
This is not unique to the French of course. If news reports circulating today are to be believed, even the Germans have thrown their lot in with the Syrian “opposition” fighters, that ad-hoc ensemble of wannabe jihadists who in most cases would have been hard pressed to find Syria on a map before the Sunni states, with the full connivance of the Nations of Virtue, began offering guns and money and a licence to kill to every young man looking for adventure and/or martyrdom.
The Germans know a thing or two about butchery, so obviously when they see a butcher in Assad, they should be taken with some seriousness. What puzzles me is that until very recently they, the French, the Americans, the Canadians, to name but a few of the most virtuous of the Nations of Virtue, were more than happy to look the other way while the CIA plucked hapless Muslims off the streets of Europe and sent them to Assad’s Syria for interrogation.
But today they bray for Assad’s hide to be bundled off to the ICC.
The hypocrisy hardly ends there. In those first few hopeful months after the First Black President won his Nobel Peace Prize, there was a flurry of reporting around recommendations by UN’s special investigator of torture, Manfred Nowak, that George W. and Donald Rumsfeld be charged with crimes against humanity and sent to the ICC.
Assad needs to do quite a lot more butchering before he has as much Sunni blood on his hands as those two.
