Caroline Glick has an detailed article about Israel's growing diplomatic isolation and the cozying up of various countries, especially in the EU, to Hamas, Hezbollah, etc.
Much of the current controversy stems from comments made last week by new Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman. Glick asserts that what he really said was:
"...that the Netanyahu government will not accept a Palestinian terror state. That is, all he said was that Israel's support for Palestinian statehood is contingent on Palestinian behavior. Additionally, Lieberman correctly pointed out that Israel's own international position has been harmed rather than advanced by its willingness to compromise its positions and accept those of its Palestinian adversaries..."
If her interpretation is correct, then it seems to me that what he said made sense. IMHO.
