Quote of the day -- very relevant to Israeli diplomats' failure to respond to rampant settlement illegality rhetoric:
If Israel ha[s] a convincing defense to ... charges, why not shout it from the rooftops? [W]e cannot hope to win anyone over to our side if we do not defend ourselves forthrightly at every opportunity.
Our failure to make the case forcefully ... encapsulates much of what has been wrong with Israel's halfhearted ... "hasbara" for so many years.
