Flights to Israel OK'd
The U.S. flight ban to Tel Aviv has been lifted, giving Israel a needed reprieve from a misguided decision. When the FAA banned all U.S. flights to Tel Aviv earlier this week, it handed Hamas a huge win. As fighting continues, Israel has lost more than 30 soldiers, while Hamas has sacrificed more than 700 Palestinian lives for propaganda purposes. It's working. Reuters reports, "UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay said there was 'a strong possibility' that Israel was committing war crimes in Gaza." Pressure on Israel is growing from all sides, though Barack Obama repeatedly professes his "unshakeable commitment" to our ally. Why does our support then always seem so shakeable?
Meanwhile, doesn't Benjamin Netanyahu just look delighted to be with John Kerry?
