In Thailand, President Obama, who regularly bombs Pakistan and Yemen, defended Israel’s right to defend itself by saying ”No Country On Earth Would Tolerate Missiles Raining Down On Its Citizens From Outside Its Borders.” He also warned that future escalation in Gaza would likely result in peace talks pushed into future.

    • That statement completely overlooks the fact that the Palestinians have been forced out of their homes, off of their lands and held captive by the hostile actions of Israel's leaders. What country on earth would be expected to tolerate that, and exactly what do we think the Palestinians are supposed to do....continue to retreat until they are living in the sea?

      The United States spends billions on Israel's defense, but what about the Palestinians, they do not have the advantage of our money. Why are we not defending them from the wartime tactics of the Israeli government? Why are Palestinians essentially prisoners on the Gaza strip? Why has this conflict persisted for so long? Why is there never, ever and real pursuit of peace if that is what the people on both sides of this conflict really want?

      King Hussein of Jordan was acting as a "mediator." His wife, Queen Rania, is very outspoken on the issue of a free Palestinian - very well educated and an excellent speaker. They've both expressed that they are more "in favor" of Abu Mazan (Mahmoud Abbas) who leads the Fatah Party (the old PLO) - at least publicly.
      It's Hamas - the military arm - which is "running" Gaza (Hamas was elected in Gaza.)

      Interesting that the Jordanian Embassy site in the U.S. has gives DNS msg at the moment. On the news last nite (in Canada) there was quite a large story about cyber-attacks, ongoing on all relevant Countries involved (Israel, Palestine, Jordan, etc.) in the area, and in the US.
