The unintended consequences of the UN's latest indictment of Israel.

The New Republic# By Yossi Klein Halevi "Limited victories on the battlefield are being turned into major defeats in the arena of world opinion. That untenable situation may well leave Israel no choice but to return to the post-1967 policy of preventing altogether the presence of terror enclaves on its borders. Better, Israelis will argue, to deal decisively with the terror threat and brace for temporary international outrage than subject our legitimacy to constant attrition, even as the terrorist threat remains intact."
