A scathing report issued by the State Department's Office of the Inspector General says that the US embassy in Tel Aviv has 'failed completely' in its efforts to convince Israel to roll over and die.

It also urges terminating the American loan guarantee program to Israel at the end of 2011 That's a good thing, no?!?!

I'm not sure. Loan guarantees are still construed as 'aid' and for what it's worth, there's rarely a great deal of pressure to pay them back. So it winds up being a de facto aid program. I'd rather the US bought Israeli sovereign debt bond issues.
