Against the War in Afghanistan but for War between Israel and Egypt

Which war do you support? You can choose Afghanistan, Iraq, Thailand or between Israel and Egypt. The pretend left bloggers have shown repeatedly their aversion to war. Wars, after all, kill young people and typically hurt population by bombing, causing hardship, instigating refugees, etc.

Yet, the same bloggers couldn't be happier when the protests in Egypt opened up the possibility of Egypt abrogating the peace treaty with Israel. Suddenly killing, maiming, forced population movements all become acceptable.

The pretend left doesn't oppose war; it opposes some wars.
