Bradley Burston: GM as parable, and Israel's sudden choice: Obama or Kahane
Talkback

Resisting Obama is not going to be easy, so good Israeli doves should tone down their incipient triumphalism. The main Kahanist party is not even in the government, and what is sent onto the blogs luxuriates in hyperbole. Moderate Zionists who have the connections need to work with those they are personally acquainted within the Settler Movement to discover new and different contributions they can continue to make to Zion and Jerusalem. Israel does not have unlimited political maneuverability and a war of Kahanists against the world is simply not on.
