I had previously argued that the Gaza pullout was one of the reasons that condemnation of the current Lebanon offensive was muted. I think a call to Rush Limbaugh illustrates my point:
"CALLER:
Well, I think a lot of it was with how much we've been giving the
Palestinians and pressuring Israel to subside to them and give them,
you know, concessions, give them land, pull out, and as well as with
Lebanon and Hezbollah. And just to see the reaction and that it's not
made things better, it's actually made things worse by doing that.
RUSH: All right, so you've discovered or decided land for peace is a hoax?
CALLER: Yes.
RUSH: It's not led to what it promised?
CALLER: Correct.
"
