Tensions among Democrats grow over Israel as the left defends Palestinians
With violence in Israel and the Palestinian territories, divisions between the leadership of the Democratic Party and the activist wing have burst into public view.

Twenty-seven days before the first rocket was fired from Gaza this past week, a squad of Israeli police officers entered the Aqsa Mosque in Jerusalem, strode across its courtyard and cut the cables to the loudspeakers that broadcast prayers to the faithful. It was the night of April 13, the first day of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. In hindsight, the police raid on the mosque was one of several provocations that led, less than a month later, to the sudden resumption of war between Israel and Hamas, and the outbreak of civil unrest between Arabs and Jews across Israel itself.
