We’ll be getting plenty of post-mortems on the Netanyahu-Obama meeting. The analysis in the Los Angeles Times is fairly critical of Netanyahu, and talks explicitly about his role in the US political process. It’s not clear how much of an issue this is to most Americans, but we’ll see as the days pass.
The Russians and the Chinese are beginning to change their positions on the situation in Syria ever so slightly. I’m not sure that the movement is enough to give some hope to the Syrian people. Even if a resolution is passed in the UN Security Council is passed, it is difficult to imagine what kind of intervention would actually offer real protection. Senator McCain’s suggestion is virtually impossible to implement–only ground troops can offer real protection to the civilians.
Since all these posts are depressing, here’s a link to a little world politics humor. (not a quiz post) (just try to laugh) And offer your own personal suggestions.
