Exactly. This is Chomsky's shtick too, to say that somehow the blood of Palestinians' is on the hands of janitors and nurses and university professors who happen to live in the United States.

It's the same sort of belief that motivates the recent spate of open letters and cabinet wishlists penned to Obama, as if the writer(s) has some sort off personal intimate relationship with the sovereign (God). Guess what? Obama could give a flying fuck for your advice. The only thing that is accomplished is an increase in the writer's self-esteem.
