Israel to Face Renewed Opposition to Her National Sovereignty?

Submitted by M. Tovey (United States), Mar 22, 2010 at 19:36

Are we to presume that a different message than that offered (forced) by the vice president of the United States is forthcoming? Many, with anticipations abounding, appear ready to reinforce the (shall we call it the world supported mandate?) requirement of diminishing Israel's right to self protection by her continued efforts to provide cushion from the infringements imposed upon her territory.

If any discussion does occur other than restating the current American adminstration's intentions of holding to a standard no one else would tolerate from the international community, it will have to be connected to the 'Palestinian' issue, or there will be no support from the Arab community, let alone any non-Arab Muslim sensibilities that may be countered in the discussion.
