Israel is in the wrong, in a complex situation

First, Israel's worries about ending the Gaza blockade and thereby allowing missiles into Gaza is at least somewhat realistic.

Second, don't forget the blockade also involved the agreement of Egypt (which has temporarily reopened its land border).

That said, the attack was in international waters, therefore is arguably an act of war.

But, yes, Israel will probably get away with it. To riff on Pat Buchanan, not only American Jews, but the Amen corner (or should we now call that the Palin corner?) is already gearing up. The Team Obama is certainly not the A-Team on this; don't forget Zionist apologist aka Obama Chief of Staff Rahm Emanuel and his butt-kissing of American rabbis last month.

The bottom line on this issue DOES go back to Bush. We were al for democracy n the Middle East, until a free election put Hamas in power.
