I see no way to avoid the conclusion, given the overwhelming preponderance of the Israelis' actions and rhetoric over the past three years, that they consider genocide of a defenseless adversary to be a perfectly legitimate course of action.
And it looks like they can get away with it for at least as long as George W. Bush is in office.
Based on Obama's campaign pledges of fealty to Israel, hope for change in U.S. foreign policy towards Palestine seems remote.
Let us pray.
