“I am not one of those who believes—as Obama is said to believe—that a solution to the Palestinian statehood question would bring an end to Muslim resentment against the United States. (Incidentally, if he really does believe this, his lethargy and impotence in the face of Netanyahu's consistent double-dealing is even more culpable.) The Islamist fanatics have their own agenda, and, as in the case of Hamas and its Iranian backers, they have already demonstrated that nothing but the destruction of Israel and the removal of American influence from the region will possibly satisfy them. No, it is more the case that justice—and a homeland for the Palestinians—is a good and necessary cause in its own right. It is also a special legal and moral responsibility of the United States, which has several times declared a dual-statehood outcome to be its objective.” ReligionUnited StatesAtheismIslamIsraelIranForeign PolicyMiddle EastPalestineHamasIsraeli Palestinian ConflictBarack ObamaIslamismUs Foreign PolicyBenjamin NetanyahuObama Middle East PolicyObama Foreign Policy Author:Christopher Hitchens
