<p>There has been plenty of backlash over Israel's recent Gaza offense. Here, the other uses a <a href="http://pajamasmedia.com/blog/sonny-corleone-in-gaza/">Godfather analogy</a> to defeng the offensive:</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">Random “proportionate” attacks, however, would do nothing in terms
of dismantling the Hamas terrorist infrastructure, which is the <span style="text-decoration: underline;"><a href="http://haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1052299.html">avowed mission</a></span> of Israel’s Gaza campaign. By going into Gaza in Sonny Corleone
fashion, Israel aims to ensure that the Hamas attacks — as cowardly as
Carlo’s battering of Sonny’s sister Connie — are permanently ended.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 60px;">Of course, Hamas being Hamas, they will never stop trying to kill Jews. Fans of <em>The Godfather</em> will recall that Carlo, being Carlo, chose a coward’s revenge by
betraying Sonny to rival mobsters, so that at last Michael Corleone
assigned Clemenza to deal decisively with Carlo.</p>

<p>"My inner traditionalist also wonders why liberal Jews like Glenn
Greenwald invariably disparage Israeli efforts to defend themselves
against terrorism."</p>
