A couple of days ago Washington said it was ready to act fast to make adopt by the UN a project of economic sanctions against Iran, if the country's answer to the nuclear issue was not satisfying.
The International Herald Tribune (see previous post) had also claimed economic sanctions against the Sudanese government as the only possibility to make them stop the genocide in Darfour.
While these proposals are very positive and civilised, because at least they do not prone the use of violence and military power as the solution, it makes me but wonder why the US and the UN have not (have never) proposed an economic embargo (and arms) against Israel, as the only possible way to make them sit at the table and (seriously) seek a peace deal with Palestina and their surrounding neighbours. One that foresees their total withdrawal from the West Bank and an international administration to Jerusalem, that is.
Cynical world.
