I once heard Madeleine Albright make comments to this affect:
"I once met a Palestinian diplomat and he told me, 'You will never understand us, for you too (meaning Americans) are a settler people.'
I thought about it for a minute and then replied, 'You know, I think you're right'."
These comments struck me at the time, and have given me some perspective on tacit American support for the settlements.
What are your thoughts on this quote and the mindset that it suggests?
