"The palestinians might claim assistance from NATO after this ordeal has stopped, and nobody in Israel nor in the US wants this."

And why not? If we have the right to bomb Kosovo on the pretense of ethnic cleansing, then why shouldn't the Palestinians have a right to claim the same. The Palestinians have been experiencing ethnic cleansing for the last fifty years. There are some two million now living in refuge camps for the last fifty years.

As for "nobody in the US wanting this", I think you are very wrong.
The logic of Kosovo clearly applies to Israel.

I discovered that with practice i could stifle the gag reflex stimulated by that one - there's actually a boring sameness to his whole rap, you'll see after a while.

"Emile, you take the side of the Spanish inquisition in your first three paragraphs. "

Not at all! But I also oppose the occupation and persecution of the Spanish people by the Sephardim and the Moslems for some 600 years.

It is strange that some people have selective indignation when it comes to persecution and killing.
They seem to think its ok for the Moslem Albanians to kill Christian Serbs, but its wrong for Serbs to defend themselves and do the same.
They seem to think the was inquisition wrong, but that the occupation and persecution of the Moslems and Sephardim was ok.
They seem to think that ethnic cleansing in Kosovo is horrible, but ethnic cleansing in Palestine is ok.

Selective indignation is a strange creature!
