Simply stated, the political force of the United States is run by special interest. There are three very powerful lobbies in the US: The evangelical Christian lobby, the pro-Israeli lobby, and the oil lobby. The evangelicals have alligned themselves with the Israeli lobby on social issues, and are not likely to speak out against the actions of the IDF. So, criticism of Israel is very much in the same state as the chance of any meaningful alternative energy research: Not likely until special interest can be curbed, and the people can once again regain their voices.
