You've got to love the impartiality of the UN. Already condemning before even starting the probe.

UN calls for impartial probe of Israeli raid

The U.N. Security Council is calling for an impartial investigation of Israel's deadly commando raid on ships taking humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip and condemning the "acts" that resulted in the loss of at least nine lives.

After an emergency meeting and marathon negotiations, the 15 council members agreed early Tuesday on a presidential statement that was weaker than that initially demanded by the Palestinians, Arabs and Turkey.

They had called for condemnation of the attack by Israeli forces "in the strongest terms" and "an independent international investigation."

Let's face it, it really didn't matter what Israel did. With the pro-muslim administration in the U.S., eventually they would lose the public opinion war. Frankly, I think they are better off doing something now before a cultural war of attrition makes them weaker.

I do think that Israel is going to be forced into a mutually assured destruction situation. They might as well get it over with now.
