For the second time in a week, Nicholas Kristof yells: Dahlan, O Dahlan. "the barriers and checkpoints have undermined Palestinian moderates." And on the Israeli occupation, Kristof said: "Yet it is also here that you see the very best side of Israel." Imagine if somebody writes about the French occupation of Algeria, or about the Apartheid system: that here, you see the best side of France or the best side of the White Minority Government. (And for readers outside of the U.S.: Kristof is considered very liberal by U.S. standards). (thanks Linda)
