McConnell: Kofi Anna is wrong

Senate Majority Whip Mitch McConnell telling it like it is today in reference to Kofi Annan’s criticism of Israel’s tactics against Hezbollah:

“Kofi Annan is wrong. He ought to read Resolution 1559 which not only called for the Syrians to get out of Lebanon but also for Hezbollah to disarm. Unfortunately for the Lebanese they are living with armed terrorists in their midst and unfortunately for the Israelis this group is right next door. Imagine if we were attacked by a neighbor here. We wouldn’t sit still and take it—we would go after the people lobbing rockets onto our population. The Israelis’ response, it seems to me, is appropriate under the circumstances.”
