Latest US government stupidity on the issue of Palestine has nothing to do with Palestine but everything to do with US internal politics. Whatever the wording the UN Security Council would have used, still US would have vetoed it. Simply because John Kerry´s campaign could have possibly used it against Bush. Bush has to be 101% Pro-Israel, or so the "wisdom" goes. He can´t act against the "brave, democratic Israel, who fights against cruel terrorists" - the usual crap - and in fact no US president can ever act, because there´s always elections of some kind in the horizon and the revence of the Christian fundamentalists and AIPAC would be terrible. In Middle Eastern issues, the US president is not a leader of a sovereign state, but an Israeli governor general installed in the White House to oversee the occupation of the US.
