One's political philosophy and the means to implement it are two radically different things. Despite the horrors of the moment, there are openings that didn't exist during the Gulf War, and this, I feel, is because those progressives who understand the difference between theory and reality have helped to nudge the mainstream a bit on Middle East issues. The widespread support for Palestinian independence is but one example of this. The pressure didn't come from the right.
And please stop with this "no brainer" high school nonsense. How old are you -- 16? 17? I hope so, because if you're an adult spewing this dogmatic garbage then there's really nothing to discuss. What, did you just discover Rage Against The Machine and are feeling rilly rad, dude?
