No-fly zone double-standard
Gulf states (by which we mean, of course, the rulers of those states, not the actual people) have called for "no-fly zones" over Libya because, you know, it's unfair that there's a war in which one side has planes and bombs and the other doesn't, and it's important to protect "the people." I'll be waiting for the day that they extend that same sympathy, and concern for asymmetric resources, to the people of Gaza, being bombed almost daily by Israeli warplanes.
