Ted, U.S. support for Israel has been anything but unconditional. We're more likely to take Israel's side than any other nation in the free world, but I don't think it goes to the point of being unconditional. It says a lot when the author of the "Bush doctrine" tells Sharon not to pursue that very doctrine to the letter.

I could not have said it any better myself. I haven't talked to any Palestinians or other Arabs recently but have been following this and talking about it with people who have spent considerable time in Israel and the Arab states. I don't think I am biased because I have no stake in this except as an average U.S. citizen looking for peace and quiet and fair play. The Israelis have let their technical military superiority go to their heads.

. . . Let's just nuke the whole Middle East. The world has excess population and the area is too dry and barren to support all the people over there anyway. Just nuke the whole bloody mess. And after were done with that, let's nuke some other places too . . . just for the fun of it. We could film it all and turn it into a new "survivor" show. Big ratings and profits assured.
