Such exciting times these are. Tunisia, Egypt, now citizens across the Middle East are stirring. The U.S. must rethink its position in Middle East--supporting autocrats if they sell us oil and don't make war on Israel. Advocating democracy is very close to the heart and soul of American policy. Yet when the Palestinians held an election and chose Hamas, the US turned away. As if the US has never used terror as a tool!
The pro-Israel lobby is very powerful in Congress. Will it hang the US out to dry? Will it keep our nation in a 20th century paradigm?
Yes, things are a-changing. I am watching. I'm wondering. I'm eager to see what the future looks like.
Peace, y'all
