Hillary Clinton before Senate Foreign Relations Committee

Senator Hillary Clinton, soon to be Secretary of State, is before the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee today and says the United States has to address Israel's security needs and the Palestinians' aspirations for a state of their own.

Is the Senate Foreign Relations Committee going to actually scrutinize Senator Clinton for this post or is it a done deal?

Take a wild guess... DONE DEAL!

As for the Gaza situation there is very little Foreign Relations taking place.

Meanwhile the bombs keep falling, the bullets keep flying, and the Senate Foreign Relations Committee can sit around rubber stamping the good Senator from New York State that was almost President of the United States of America.

In any event, the statement is as innocuous as can be. Yes, why not just state the obvious and have everyone in Senate Foreign Relations Committee  do absolutely nothing to try and rectify the situation.

Sounds like Business as Usual to me! Someone needs to do something about the situation NOW. Not in a week or a month. 

So here's my question: What will the incoming US President DO about the Palestinians and the Israelis or is that a question everyone will continue to evade?

Hey! What's up with that Stuff?
