The Israel rules

America's support of the Gaza attack proves once again that our mythical image of Israel has blinded us to its faults -- a myopia with devastating consequences for both countries.

And again, what should the Israelies do?

You seem to be missing the point. My list has nothing to do with being self denying. It's all about what the Palestinians can do for themselves independent of what Israel does. As I said above, no one actually cares about the Palestinians; no one is interested in improving their lot. The Palestinians are merely being used to criticize the Israelis. If someone else were shelling them at this moment, the world would not care.
-- Amy Tuteur, MD

While blockaded? Why don't you consider the oppressed? Why take the view of the oppressors? How about an honest accounting of the situation? It is never easy when you are blinded by your own prejudice, but a clear view is what is needed. The U.S, should stop providing aid for this madness as it is not our fight. Foreign entanglements indeed.
