" When Israeli forces left Gaza in January, they left behind 1,400 Palestinian dead, 4,000 homes destroyed, universities and government buildings flattened, and tens of thousands homeless. The Israeli and world press documented IDF atrocities including the indiscriminate use of white phosphorus in densely populated urban areas, the assault on United Nations humanitarian facilities, the shelling of civilian homes, and the shooting in cold blood of unarmed civilians...

Israel has become an expert at wearing down its opponents, honing such skills during 40 years of occupation of the West Bank and Gaza... No major American-Jewish peace group has called for a Gaza war crimes investigation. It is a sensitive subject among diaspora Jews...

My motivation in writing this is not to avenge the deaths of innocent Palestinians. Nor is it for pure justice. It is rather to bring Israel back from the brink." -- Richard Silverstein

This typical Jewish "liberal" is not really concerned about the fate of the Palestinian rabble, but rather that the latest massacre committed by his fellow Zionists has tarnished the carefully cultivated image of the Jewish State. At least the Likudniks are more honest about their objectives, unlike their slimy "liberal" cousins overseas.

How many of the "liberal" servants of the Jewish State now sitting in the U.S. Congress voted to provide the money and munitions used to rain flaming death on the beseiged citizens of Gaza?

In addition to calling for a "Gaza war crimes investigation" perhaps Mr. Silverstein should add a New York financial crimes investigation to the list, especially since many of the same players are involved. I'm sure that would prove to be a "sensitive subject" as well -- just ask former Governor Eliot Spitzer.
