Nothing from me about Gaza, but I trust the judgement of my friends at The Economist who, even though they are not allowed into Gaza, know plenty of people who are. I am a good friend of one of the people who wrote this piece. Like me, the piece conjectures that Israeli politicians are having second thoughts about how Barack Obama will view their actions and what this might mean if they don’t withdraw before his inauguration. Before any hotheads accuse The Economist of bias, the writer’s relatives include Israeli settlers. Plus, there’s an ad for the CIA at the top of the page! You can read the piece here: Bloodshed and Diplomacy in Gaza: Where will it end?
