Koch’s article was the blatant BS of the Israel right or wrong fanatics. I am all for supporting Israel, but I know they have not been right all the time. One sided political viewpoints are never correct.

Excellent post.
And it should also be noted the U.S. is, on certain levels, negotiating with Iran about their nuclear program.
Ironically, this (past and present U.S. negotiations or "appeasement") will probably be the argument launched against McCain's absurd vitriol toward Obama sitting down with nations/groups unfriendly to the U.S. and Israel.
