What the hell were they thinking..?

From A Special Place in Hell, by Bradley Burston
“We are no longer defending Israel. We are defending the siege. The siege itself is becoming Israel’s Vietnam.… We explain, time and again, that we are not at war with the people of Gaza. We say it time and again because we ourselves need to believe it, and because, deep down, we do not.”

In the Nation's article today, Roane Carey quoted Glenn Green as stating: "If Israel’s goal were to provoke as much disgust and contempt for it as possible, it’s hard to imagine how it could be doing a better job.”

Yep, that about sums it up.
