Key US test on Israel: Support or Dither?



As recounted here on Fox News, the Israeli raid on the flotilla attempting to beak their blockade of Gaza Strip is being condemned all around, including by the UN.

What Fox News clearly points out is that this was not a humanitarian mission because there is no need for a humanitarian mission. This was a calculated effort to put Isarel in a bad light internationally and in that respect it was a smashing success.

So, what will the US do? Will we support Israel and condemn those trying to create an international incident?

Will we support the UN position and condenm our allie? Or will we come out and support the Gaza Strip Palestinians?

There is no place to hide on this one. We either do the right thing or we don't.
