It's not widely reported as to what this factors into the current situation. It pains me that their security is being bought with American blood.
Both parties have been whores.
Unfortunately, diplomacy is the only way out of this, and the ones in power aren't moving in that direction. Without dialogue, nothing will be accomplished. It will be Israel calling the shots from behind the screen, US soldiers (3601 so far) coming home in boxes, and people so preoccupied with living day-to-day that no notice is taken of the real story, nor the real tragedy.
This mess will end some day, though I agree that it won't be "cleanly accomplished".

You sure do have a thing about Israel! Israel is a strategic ally in the Middle East...a Democracy as are we. Why should we be diplomatic with countries who have sworn our destruction? Most of our actions have been to stabilize the region. Remember, the US gave a fortune to PLO as well as to Israel. Israel calling the shots in the US is another of your conspiracy theories. What are we to make of the gadflys who travel to Syria and Iraq and Iran,trumpeting a new idea for peace....for people who don't want it! I would say that is appeasement,or worse.
