UN reaches agreement on ceasefire in Gaza Strip
I think we all knew this was coming, but it still makes me angry, especially since US support for a ceasefire is what made it possible.
The Lord will avenge.

Obama vows to 'engage immediately' on Mideast once inaugurated
U.S. President-elect Barack Obama, who has avoided commenting on foreign policy matters, said on Wednesday he will "engage immediately" in the situation in the Middle East when he becomes president.
Obama, who takes office on January 20, repeated that he was deeply concerned about the situation in Gaza but said he it would be imprudent to send signals that his incoming administration is running foreign policy.
[In other words, he's voting 'present' again. Though frankly, if I were Israel, I'd be very, very leery of letting this guy organize any treaties.]

Calling for the creation of a new economic council to run along the lines of the UN Security Council, the chancellor said she was also in favour of a sustainable economy "world charter" which would set out new rules for long-term financial management. "No country can act alone in this day and age, not even the United States, however powerful they may be," she said.
