Needlenose

Finally, a U.S. President talking some sense about the situation between Israel & the Palestinians.  Of course I think the two-state approach is not a viable solution, and of course he provides neither carrot nor stick to get either side to embrace his vision (e.g. cutting off the very liberal aid we dole out to both parties), but at least he spent a little of his “I Killed Osama” politcal capital on the issue!

…what I meant was blood-thirsty bastards!

The Israeli army fired into a crowd of unarmed demonstrators, killing 10 Palestinians, mostly children and teens. Now tell me again how this differs from a suicide-bomber killing innocent civilians on a bus? Oh yeah, the soldier in the tank didn’t die with his victims. Talk about your asymmetrical warfare!
