UN meeting of Gaza Ships Deaths



Telegraph: Reports on a emergency meeting of the UN Security Council to discuss the death of nineteen individuals by the hands of Israel on the Gaza set Ship. Its the usual lynch Israel lobby, what is interesting is what the Oval will do, Obama has enough political problems on his plate at the moment, the Oil Spill, the tensions between North and South Korea, Iran and the US economy, he does not need the old age headache of the Israel and the Palestinian Question. Also if Obama is negative when it comes to Israel one can postulate that the Democrats and Republicans on the Hill will come out and support Israel, as stated the US has the Mid Term Elections in November, Obama has frosty relationship with Israel at the present, thus there is a limit to the political damage that Obama can take to keep the NYT types happy or the UK Guardian. Also Obama cant push Israel to far as he does not want them to attack Iran, if he is not talking to Israel they might as well attack Iran, if they are frozen by Obama what is a little bit more frost.
