Re: Dershowitz's Weak Analysis of Obama's Support for Israel

One of the reasons why Dershowitz is perceived as a strong supporter of Israel is because those typically on the left are the most rabid haters of Israel, so we take what we can get. It is under this prism which one must view his support and his not so reasoned analysis.
To be sure Dershowitz wants to see Israel survive, and understands that it is the Jewish homeland. HOWEVER, despite ALL the overwhelming evidence to the contrary, that a 'two state' solution will only lead to a one state solution-the destruction of Israel-Dershowitz continues to parrot its efficacy. At the same time we must be mindful that Dershowitz is not an island unto himself, as Israel's deluded, dangerous leftists are guilty of the same fantastical thinking.
Therefore, like a true, died in the wool leftist, Dershowitz sees what he wants to see. He was a strong supporter of Obama, and as of yet his rose colored glasses have not been rearranged by reality on the ground. I suspect that in short order he will have his epiphany, as soon as Obama runs interference for the mullahs once the IAF gets its green light.
Tragically, many Harvard guys (and gals) are often the last to see reality for what it often is-to the detriment of millions of citizens.
