Is the 'Arab Spring' not allowed in Palestine?by Joharah Baker http://usa.mediamonitors.net/content/view/full/85687

"The problem, other than Israel’s meddling, is the United States’ double standards, glaringly clear yet again when it comes to Palestine. The revolutions in the Arab world, which have now come to be known as the Arab Spring, have been lauded by the US as the democratic voice of the people. For the Palestinians, apparently, this is not an option. The Americans, the Israelis and even Europeans all say they support the choice of the people, but when the Palestinians choose, their options are rife with conditions....Neither Israel nor the United States have any business in internal Palestinian affairs. Besides, if you are a proponent of democracy, you better go all the way. Otherwise you just come out looking like a hypocrite."
