I don’t have much to say about Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert treating the president of the United States as though he were a naughty child, except to say that this is not the kind of relationship that America should have with any country in the world, ever, and it would be interesting to hear whether people who uncritically support Israel’s military activities believe that giving another head of state the power to determine American foreign policy is the type of relationship that serves American interests.
