As millions of Americans, the vast majority of the world, and I strongly suspect my colleague Becky (even in reacting to Americans being killed) would agree, the time remains urgent for a solution along the lines of United Nation Security Council Resolution 242 (1967), a two-state solution for peace and justice that the major supplier of arms in the region can seed and bequeath to future generations in the face of almost unanimous world-wide endorsement.

America needs only to see the bright, clear-minded vision within it that the rest of the world has recognized for over three decades.

Back at the Fortune 500 company, Becky did mention later that, "yep, somebody has do something."

Don't hold your breath for Bush to get off his ass, though.

As I write this, news reports are coming in that Bush gave a green light to the Israeli incursion. Surpirse.

Mr Mike,

u r quick to criticize but at the same time u suggest nothing else.

all u say is others people are work is sh*t. while u sitting there on you moral pedestal assuming moral superiority.

you call a legally elected leader, who is bound by democratically elected parliament, a terrorist and a murderer, as if Sharon 'invented' Israeli defence policy. he did not. Israeli incursion started before he was born, and so is arab violence.

In summery mr Leon. you r an a**hole. your words only meant an insult. your perspective is narrow. I think you r stupid. If you want to help anybody, do some homework first before you blow your whistle.
