Teribus, I agree to some degree with your assessment. The problem is that the Sharon Adminstration has little moral authority as long as it continues its incarceration of "Refusniks". This is not democracy.
We part on this statement, however. "The credibility of the United Nations will be restored the instant the UN demonstrates that when confronted by a rapidly deteriorating situation that it can act with purpose and resolve."
This can never happen as long as the Bush Adminstration continues its anti-UN policy and resorts to uninlateral pre-emption above the wishes of the UN community. In this, the Bush administration has contributed heartilly to a "rapidly deteriorating situation".
Quick and simplistic decisions are not the best surgery.
