Conservative broadcaster Glenn Beck summed up the Gaza situation in a short video message posted on YouTube Monday. “Every country has a right to defend itself against terror,” he said. “But they keep telling Israel… don’t overreact!… don’t fire back!… be careful!… don’t ramp things up!

“Let me get this straight… If Mexico fired a missile into El Paso, you know what we would do? If Japan fired a missile into Beijing, you know what China would do? So why does Israel have to hold back?”

The answer to that question comes next in the video.
