US Audacity of Hope Falters
Obamboozled / Ramzy Baroud

While Palestinians, and those who support and sympathize with their rightful struggle, are accustomed to Israel’s belligerent violations of international and humanitarian law, and direct and indirect US support of Israeli behavior, many had the ‘audacity’ to hope that things might change under the new US presidency. Obama’s speech in Cairo, despite its many flaws, was seen as a promising sign that the US will play a more conducive role in finding a just solution to the conflict and the ongoing tragedy of the Palestinians. It was thought that Obama was planning to start simple, by merely demanding a freeze of the settlement expansion. It’s anything but demanding full rights for Palestinians, or even allowing cement, food and medicine to starving Gaza, but it’s a start, nonetheless.

As usual

I guess the Neo Comm definition of “ethnic cleansing” means the Arab population in Israel taking over the Jewish population in a decade or two!

How dumb and out of touch and cold hearted are these Neo Comms? They think people believe their garbage!

As usual, you GUESS wrong and no matter what YOU think, actually people have more sense that you have exhibited here and would believe what you could not grasp in a hundered years!

The real ethnic cleansing is happening to Bahais in Iran under this Fascist regime called the IRI.
