When are Lefties NOT Horrified by Capital Punishment?

When? When those being executed are Palestinians accused by the PLO Islamofascists of "collaborating" with Israel!

Remember when the Left was claiming that the whole point of the Oslo "peace process" was to have the PLO itself collaborate with Israel and resolve the Middle East dispute through negotiation? Remember when the PLO committed itself to providing Israel with intelligence information about those carrying out terror atrocities?

Well, no one seriously expects the PLO terrorists to comply with any of their Oslo obligations. But this week they are once again executing hapless Palestinians accused of "collaborating" with Israel's anti-terror efforts. 15 Palestinians have now been sentenced to death by the PLO under "moderate" Abu Mazen, accused of having passed information to Israel about arch-terrorists who were later killed by Israel. The PLO also has a long history of executing and torturing homosexuals, including via knee-capping. How come the pro-gay Left has little to say about that?

So what happened to the Lefties against Capital Punishment? The same ones who whine when Israel whacks terror leaders and planners? Why not even a meow from them now?

This point was on my blog yesterday.I posted a lenghty blog on homosexuality Israel and Muslim nations compared. Some nations like Turkey and Bulgaria are tollerant.
The blog was triggered by the hostility for Israel and American Jews posted by a visitor to my blog. The poster proudly identified himself as a Homosexual.

I prepared a blog on the subject and awaited comment. I also posted links to articles that show gay Palestinians flee to Israel for safety.

I guess lynching is okay as long as it is done by the Palestinians. I also do not recall any outcry about necklacing in South Africa from the left.

China is another country with the death penalty — whose execution rate, in fact, I have calculated to be 30 times that of America's — that they are not wont to make much noise about…

Some of it no doubt is the result of the fact that virtually no news from inside the PA gets reported by major American media outlets.

When are Lefties not horrified by capital punishment? When it's done on a massive scale.

Note the leftist rage over allegedly crowded prisons in America and their absolute silence about the mass graves of executed "political prisoners" in other countries.

Unless, of course, you belong to Amnesty International.
