I don’t want to speak for Mr. Totten (whom I respect immensely and find generally very reasonable even when I disagree with him), but it seems like with the Lebanese army taking on Fatah terrorists in the Palestinian refugee camps, his Palestinian sympathy meter is getting down near zero.

I can barely remember when mine was above zero. Of course these days it’s so far in the negative that I’d have to recalibrate to get a reading if I cared.
