Wolves that cried wolf

Reader comment on item: Reflections a Year after Hosni Mubarak's Resignation

Submitted by Jay1 (United States), Feb 13, 2012 at 21:40

Rather remarkable how events have played out. Think about the past and current heads of Syria, Iran, Iraq, Libya,Yemen,Hezbollahs Lebanon, Hamas and many many others. Think how for decades they all cried wolf, but used the word Israel instead of wolf. Remarkable! All the wolves that cried wolf.
