While most of the developed world is in an uproar about Israel’s attack on the humanitarian flotilla and all the issues that assault raises in terms of the bigger picture in the Middle East, there has been very little coverage of it at Daily Kos.

Markos, on "This Week" you stated the attack was "incompetently handled" but it left open a lot of questions, as it appeared you lean more towards condoning than condemning what happened. What are the views of you and your stellar writers on the bigger moral issues of who was right and who was wrong, not just in that specific incident but in the all the other issues in that troubled region? Were the flotilla killings justified? Is Israel’s siege of Gaza and its impact morally defensible in your view? Do you think Israel’s actions in the wars in Lebanon and Gaza were brutally one-sided or "measured and proportionate"? Are the settlements illegal? Is the occupation acceptable?

Many commentators are disappointed that tonight’s debate is so tightly structured that only 90 responses are allowed. The thinking is that if the rules were more lax, Palin would have more rope to hang herself with.

All Biden has to do is make her squirm in the first 90 seconds.

He needn’t try to make her look stupid; the entire nation knows that by now and her debate coaches will have given her Supreme Court decisions to talk about and foreign diplomacy journals to quote from, so Biden shouldn’t waste time pointing out the obvious.
