Despite the opening sentences of the US Constitution, when the Palestinians had the nerve to ask the UN to recognise them as a country, like, say, Andorra, the Americans not only blocked it, but to teach then a lesson, blocked a payment of $200 million in aid, with threats of further, worse blockages to come. Yes, this was Congress; no, it is contrary to the 2 state solution' advocated by Bush and Obama. But WTF? When did Israel get a seat on the Security Council?
If it ends in disaster --perhaps for the Israelis,-- who will stand up and say they were a poor friend to wilfull Israel?
