Israel Matzav: The lesson of ignoring 'Palestinian' incitement

The lesson of ignoring 'Palestinian' incitement

Speaking of an 'incitement index'....

"We.became so preoccupied with this process that the process took on a life of its own. It had self-sustaining justification. Every time there was a behavior, or an incident, or an event that was inconsistent with what the process was supposed to be about, the impulse was to rationalize it, finesse it, find a way around it and not allow it to break the process, because the process seemed to have promise . I admit that I did not take into consideration the gravity of Palestinian incitement. I was too liberal on the subject."

-- Dennis Ross, Australia Jewish Review on June 15, 2001 (Hat Tip: Lenny B)

Is it happening again? Are we preoccupied with the process? Obama sure is.
