Scarpi mentions the US Veto at the weekend of that resolution condemning the shelling of civilians in Gaza, as well as the launching of missiles against Israel, on the grounds that it wasn't "even handed". Yes, that was pretty nauseating, as was the fact the the British abstained on it.

But I think it'd be pretty optimistic to think that the Democrats are going to be significantly less one-sided when it comes to anything to do with Israel and Palestine.
