“The depth of America’s moral commitment does not justify or excuse actions by an Israeli government that unnecessarily make Israel a strategic liability when it should remain an asset,” Mr. Cordesman wrote, in commentary for the centrist Center for Strategic and International Studies, where he is the Arleigh A. Burke Chair in strategy. “It is time Israel realized that it has obligations to the United States, as well as the United States to Israel, and that it become far more careful about the extent to which it tests the limits of U.S. patience and exploits the support of American Jews.”
This makes me a little, but just a little, more optimistic that the U.S. may finally be gathering the nerve to impose a peace settlement upon Israel and the Palestinians.

Michael Weiner in commenting on Helen Thomas opined the same thing (firing) should be done to her as it would be if a American suggested all blacks go back to Africa. This tells me only one thing. Weiner like a typical dual loyalist identifies as much as an Israeli as an American.
