The USA is trapped into 'unwavering support' of Israel, no matter what the situation. Granted, it is easier when an attack like this occurs, but if Biden had even hinted at suggesting "they shouldn't have been surprised after the way they treated the Palestinians.", his hopes of being re-elected would be toast!

   Big mistakes were made in 1948 in a rush to compensate Jews for the atrocities of the Holocaust. Now, after 75 years, there's little that can be done. The Palestinians can't *win* this, and I expect they know it, but a trapped and wounded animal will eventually react violently.

I am so sad for all of those on both sides who suffer because of unyielding leaders.
