Jump To Comment: 3 2 1Oil Prices are now at a record high, which of course, means record profits for her family and friends in the Oil Industry.
Why would she rush? The bilions of extra oil profits are more than enough consolation for the loss of a few hundred Arabs in the middle east.
There are other considerations too, The U.S. have always bent over backwards to facilitate Israel (for reasons that are regretably unclear).
America can not risk giving Israel orders that they will refuse to follow because that would be a humiliation for the Americans and America can not allow any animosity between the United States and Israel.
Israel are a kind of Frankensteins monster, they have been created by America, but now even if America wanted to reign them in, it would be impossible given their massive nuclear arsenal and military capability and their militaristic attitude and willingness to defend themselves with maximum force from any threat to their zionist strategy, real or imagined.
Of course, the current administration have no qualms about supporting Israel in a war against lebanon/Syria/iran and are willing to sacrifice an unlimited number of innocent lives in the process.
And the price of Oil will continue to rise as will the profits of the big oil companies.

This is what Victor Davis Hanson, a notorious neo-con policy wonk wrote:
