OK, he may be a corrupt scumbucket. In fact, let's not even beat about the Bush. He probably is. Hell, I don't know, I wasn't there, but most Israeli politicians seem to be these days. (Where's Abba Eban when we need him???) All I would say is that Hommous haven't left Israel with any choices apart from really bad ones. I would simply suggest that where they are at is this:
NORMALLY you wouldn't get to give any orders except for pizza where he's currently sitting. Sadly, this ain't normal. I think you do get to say Israel might be wrong without being told you're anti-Semitic. I hope so anyway. Cos we live in a Western democracy and all that. I'd just suggest that they've said look mate, you're history. In a normal democracy we wouldn't let you do anything right now. But on this one, sadly, we're gonna have to let you give orders which will kill thousands. Because we can't do anything else except commit mass suicide. The one crumb of comfort for all of us is that once we've killed off enough Gazans we might be able to make a decent peace with Fatah.
