I've Been Thinking:

Ever since last Friday the official PA media machine has been extremely critical of the US. Palestinian Authority newspapers, radio and TV have conducted a full blown frontal public relations assault on the United States.

The Palestinians are livid because, on Friday, the US vetoed their resolution to condemn Israeli settlements at the UN Security Council.

Interestingly, it did not seem to matter that immediately after the vote both United States Ambassador to the UN Dr. Susan Rice and US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton contradicted themselves. Each in her own words commented on how awful, destructive and illegal Israeli settlements are to the region.

Palestinians are deeply wounded and they are lashing out at the US. Almost every leader of the PA has gone public to announce that $460 million/year does not mean that they must follow US dictates and that the US has cast aside human rights for exclusive, parochial, domestic parameters.

Prepare for serious diplomatic repercussions.
