Markey and Nadler could be in the right on the Israeli Knesset

Thomas says there are 150 supporters of the House resolution to condemn the Goldstone report. Breakdown roughly 95 Republicans, 55 Democrats. Barney Frank’s not there. Neither is Chris Van Hollen of Maryland. Of course not Baird, Rush Holt, Keith Ellison, or Donna Edwards. Shame to see Markey on there. As Steve Zunes wrote in February, Markey’s human rights views on Israel-Palestine would actually put him on the right in Israel’s own Knesset. Goes for Jerrold Nadler too. And Anthony Weiner, who is populist hellfire on healthcare, and here, a downpressor man.
