Zogby poll results:

The Zogby International telephone survey, conducted Aug. 11-15, shows that 52 percent think the United States should remain neutral and 34 percent believe it should support Israel in its fight against Hezbollah forces.

[…]
Thirty-two percent said Israel used excessive force, 24 percent said Israel did not use enough force and 25 percent said the force was about right.

Wow, this is incredible, and incredibly good. I’ve said several times that the only moral position in this conflict is neutrality: both sides are wrong and have committed war crimes.

Most recently, the Israeli military illegally violated the UN ceasefire, and is threatening to do it again.
