STFU tool. I'm a huge Israel supporter who believes things like the Golan Heights and Sinai should have been considered legitimate war gains, and strongly supports Israels right to defend itself against other nations and against terrorist groups used as proxies by hostile states. I supported Israels attack on Osirak and if it comes to a future conflict with Egypt it's very unlikely I wouldn't support them in that as well.
That doesn't mean however that I feel any need to shout and boo and hiss at every mention of the Muslim Brotherhood, or the other players in the region like some kind of buffoonish pantomine audience. If the middle east is ever going to see peace (and trust me, the Israelis want that more than anything) then it's going to require all sides to moderate their positions and reach compromise. It'll happen with words and pens, because if it comes to missile and bombs every time there's not going to be anything left for the winners.
