Stopping the massacre in Gaza
The US has the diplomatic, military and economic might to stop the Israeli attack, which has now gone well past a proportionate response to the Hamas attack.
To do so is vital for all of Palestine’s citizens including the women and children, and also for Israelis particularly those held hostage, and not just those near Gaza.
Why doesn’t the US do so?
A multinational force to take over to keep the peace, as ex Israeli PM Ehud Olmert has proposed, should follow, preferably set up under the provisions of the UN Charter, but set up anyway, if that route is unworkable.
