Israelis set a new standard in hilarity
Biden making a big trip to Israel, big push for peace talks, is literally sitting down and talking with the Palestinian delegation when Israel announces 1,600 new homes in East Jerusalem.
It's very clear that the Israelis are not interested in peace. They are only interested in victory. So have you a segment of American liberals who support Israel, and the far right. In other words, the cooperation of the immoral and the stupid. I don't think I've ever had less confidence in America than right now. From top to bottom. America is chock full of lazy idiots. |

Of course, the apologists are out in full force.
http://apnews.myway.com/article/20100316/D9EFDS500.html If Israel gets a free pass on this, we might as well not even try to help with the peace process. Because the entire thing is a joke. |

Obama trying to break up the Israeli govt. coalition. I like the part at the end where it says Obama doesn't think Netanyahu is very bright. |
