Prepare to be dismayed. They would have to kill tens of thousands, and the Israeli political class in power won’t allow it, and they are out of time. I figure Obama’s “crack (smoking) foreign policy team” will put the hurt on Israel within a week of inauguration.

You mean this team?

According to the report, Obama is planning a “diplomatic offensive, which could include the appointment of special envoys,” and which “contrasts sharply” with President Bush’s approach to the region. “Bush put less emphasis on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict early in his tenure and tended to deal with Middle East problems separately,” the report explained.
