Theocracy and Hypocrisy

The mainstream commentary bristles with denunciations of Iran as an Islamic state, an unenlightened theocracy - but do you ever hear anyone describe Israel as a Jewish state? And the irony of evangelical fanatics like Mike Huckabee doing the denouncing is totally missed. The USA is crammed with people who pine for a Christian nation, yet freak out over the thought of an Ayatollah being in charge. And what about the fact that Iran absolutely cannot have a nuclear bomb but everyone knows that Israel illegally possesses lots of them ( but politely refrains from mentioning it ). They expect us ( the peons) to take international law seriously while a rogue state, and close ally like Israel flaunts it at every opportunity. Can you imagine what US leaders and the media would be saying if China were committing the kind of genocide Israel currently is? Or indiscriminately bombing and rocketing its neighbors, like Israel is doing to Lebanon and Syria? And then there is our good friends the Saudis. I know. Hypocricy isn't a thing when everyone does it. Like a fish not noticing water. A neighbor of mine flies a large flag that is half stars and stripes and half Israeli flag. Nobody says a word about his loyalty.
