That boldness combines with the likely influence of decisions of the California Supreme Court. It has a history of broad influence of the way other tribunals, including the U.S. Supreme Court, interpret fundamental constitutional issues.

Our European partners meet surreptitiously with Hamas - the British diplomat Sir Jeremy Greenstock has publicly acknowledged having such meetings. Furthermore, talks with Hamas have been advocated by a broad swath of notable Israelis - including a former head of Mossad, a former foreign minister and Ariel Sharon's former national security adviser. Why should it be easier for an Israeli politician to favor talks with Hamas than it is for an American...
