No comment necessary

Conrad Black, patron saint of Canada's right-wing movement including the Harper government, provides an unusually stark example of just how much repression neocons will accept and embrace if it means attacking the preferred enemy du jour:

The Munich Games in 1972 were designed to do for the temporary country of West Germany what it had been initially hoped the 1936 Games would do for the temporary country of Weimar Germany. Once again, the legitimate German quest for acceptance was frustrated, this time by the murderous outrage of Black September against the Israeli team. Ironically, the Germans bungled the challenge and a number of Israelis and German special forces died. (At least Hitler’s security forces would have done a very professional job of disposing of any terrorist efforts at the Berlin Games.)
