It's one thing to plead ignorance, it's quite another to be aware and simply dismiss the suffering of others. As Bill and Kathleen Christison, former CIA analysts, explain below, Americans are not unaware of Israel's atrocities, but simply unconcerned.
The Christisons, in addressing a group of influential American journalists, academics, and opinion-makers from across the political spectrum, find that Americans believe that any criticism of Israel's universally condemned human rights crimes amounts to anti-Semitism, and that Palestinians "deserve" to be bombed, imprisoned, tortured, starved, and thrown off their land by our client state.
Why do they hate us?
