Bob Dreyfuss is upset to see no daylight between the positions of John Kerry and W. on W's recent wholehearted embrace of letting Ariel Sharon do whatever the hell he wants to the future borders of a Palestinian state. [At least while Kerry was making a campaign stop in Florida, with Joe Lieberman. Hmm. Wonder who he was trying to keep on board.]
David Adesnik at Oxblog asks if the apparent lack of Hamas' ability to strke hard in Israel in retaliation for Israel's recent killing of two Hamas leaders indicates that Israel's counterterror strategy is working, and that it has essentialy won on the battlefield?
But as I pointed out a few days ago, Juan Cole says, don't look for the response from Hamas only in Israel. It's been internationalized, he writes, and US troops are seeing Hamas sympathizers' response even in Falluja.
I just don't know.
