One of the most infuriating parts of Goldstone’s wan mea culpa, is his continued insistence that the Hamas government in Gaza should be seen as a moral equivalent of Israel’s. Hence his tepid disappointment that the Hamas government hasn’t investigated “allegations” it targets civilians as a matter of policy.

It’s just astounding to me — even though I know it shouldn’t be — that anyone feels the need to play these games. Of course, Hamas targets civilians. That is what Hamas does. Talking about “allegations” that Hamas targets civilian Israelis is like talking about “allegations” that McDonald’s sells hamburgers. That is what McDonald’s does.

Anyway, I bring this up for the simple reason that Hamas fired on a school bus.

No doubt, Hamas will issue an apology immediately since this runs counter to their “policy.”
