Calling Woodrow Wilson

I've always been a bit hazy regarding where I stand regarding the Middle East. For a good part of my life, I considered the U.S. honorable for defending and promoting Israel's statehood. However, those thoughts have generally worn away in recent years as our true intentions look more and more dishonest...and as we just can't seem to admit when we're wrong.

Case in point, we were the lone nation to veto a U.N. resolution to demand Israel's attacks in Gaza to cease. Granted, there was more to the resolution than a simple ultimatum to Israel, but how can one not demand a cease-fire? Perhaps this will provide ample diversion from our antics in Iraq?

Oh to be Swiss.
