Most of Israel's "wars" do nothing to advance it's cause...
And that's because Israel will not level with the world abouts it's real ambitions on the West Bank and in Gaza...
So, everything just spins in the wind...
The Arabs know whats going on...and also the Europeans...but the American public is kept deliberately in their "news ghetto" regarding the true facts about the West Bank and Gaza.
This was all OK until the US started farming out it's middle east policy to the Israel right wingers...like the Likudnics...who wanted and got regime change in Iraq and now are clamoring for more regime change in Iran
So now, the US is mired in middle eastern "occupations" in much the same way that Israel is...but with no clear goals to justify this involvment...other than to "support Israel."
At least Israel knows what it wants... to wit: THE WEST BANK AND GAZA!
For Americans, the goals are less clear... Perhaps, we want to "Steal their oil?" Or "liberate their women?" or "to democratize them?"
American involvement, in blind support of the Israeli ultra-right...but without stating the real purpose of that support...has created America's current "psyche" problems that Dubya recently mentioned...
Shades of Carters middle east "malaise" in the 70's...!
Maybe it's time for another Arab oil embargo...to refocus everyone's thinking...
