Maybe There's Real Hope After All

Despite the US Congress being in complete lockstep behind Israel (with the exception of Dennis Kucinich) it's looking like the White House is indeed fighting back against the notion that Israel has the right to do whatever it wants to Palestinians in Gaza.
"We are working urgently with Israel, the Palestinian Authority, and other international partners to develop new procedures for delivering more goods and assistance to Gaza," said Mike Hammer, spokesman for the White House National Security Council.

"The current arrangements are unsustainable and must be changed. For now, we call on all parties to join us in encouraging responsible decisions by all sides to avoid any unnecessary confrontations," Hammer said in a statement.
That's...something.  Not much, but something. It is at least criticism that the current blockade situation is no longer acceptable to the United States.  I'm not sure if anything's going to change and I actually very much doubt it.  But it's something.
