Her sensitivity to the situation is touching.

O’REILLY: Then why — why doesn’t the rest of the world accept your analysis?

MALKIN: Because they are intoxicated. They are clouded by this moral equivalence that has set in over the world for the past several decades. And I think it behooves us to fight against that, to claw against that.

Because the manufactured outrage that Qana is not really about the deaths at Qana; it is something about much larger. It is about the jihad du jour that these — that members of the religion of perpetual outrage are always ginning up. I mean, if it’s not Qana, it’s something else.

O’REILLY: No, I got it. I got it. I got it.

MALKIN: It’s Gitmo, Abu Ghraib. It’s beauty pageants.
