ISRAEL LOSES and How It Could Have Been Different
by Barry Chamish
Such a waste of lives, property and dignity, just to pave the way for the next and bigger waste of lives, property and dignity over Gaza.
Condeleeza Rice forced a ceasefire down Israel’s throat, co-signed by Germany, Italy, Spain, France, Britain and the EU…the usual gang of warmongers. This, as the IDF was poised to rid the world of Hamas and bring in Fatah to rule Gaza. It’s heads or tails anyway you look at it. But for this fight, Israel had the quiet, jubilant backing of Egypt, Fatah and the ruling establishment of much of the Arab world. It won’t ever be this good diplomatically again.
