Palestinians Rampage, Destroy Synagogues

Of course:

Thousands of triumphant Palestinians poured into the abandoned Jewish settlement of Netzarim early on Monday, setting an empty synagogue on fire and shooting in the air... Palestinian police stood by as gunmen raised flags of militant groups and crowds smashed what was left in the ruins or set fire to the debris. There were similar scenes throughout Gaza.

This is the world in which Muslim sensibilities are taken so seriously that US soldiers at Gitmo have to wear gloves when handling Korans. Imagine the howl that the Left would raise if any non-Muslim anywhere in the world so much as partially damaged a mosque - to say nothing of the riots that would somehow spontaneously erupt throughout the Muslim world. And yet tens of synagogues were desecrated and burned to the ground - and the international media frames it in terms of "Palestinian frustration". These Palestinians are not spoiled children throwing a temper tantrum - they're religiously driven fanatics eager to destroy Jewish holy places and Jewish people.
