America’s Failed Palestinian Policy
By YOUSEF MUNAYYER
MORE
than 160 Palestinians and 5 Israelis are dead, and as the smoke clears
over Gaza, the Israelis will not be more secure and Palestinians’ hopes
for self-determination remain dashed. It is time for a significant
re-evaluation of the American policies that have contributed to this
morass.
The
failure of America’s approach toward the Israelis and the Palestinians,
much like its flawed policies toward the region in general, is founded
on the assumption that American hard power, through support for Israel
and other Middle Eastern governments, can keep the legitimate grievances
of the people under wraps.
