JAMES M. DORSEY: The people power movement has the most to lose and could find itself in the grinder as the United States, Saudi Arabia, Israel and Iran jockey for power.

MAI ABDUL RAHMAN: There appears to be increasing public support for Palestinian statehood in the U.S. Does the ‘internationalising’ of the issue mean that US politicians will be free of the Israeli yoke?

PHILIP WEISS, MONDOWEISS: It’s come to this. No-one in mainstream American politics, it appears, is willing to say a word that will risk losing the Jewish voters and donors who back Israeli discrimination.

ALEXANDER MCNABB: They were cuffed, searched, held in cells for hours, strip searched and interrogated. It made me wonder why we put up with it.
