2. Yes, despite every effort by some to bury the issue,
there is growing awareness and support.
I know here in the United States, among even mainstream liberal/progressive groups, more support for Palestinian rights, though it is often approached timidly and with fear of being attacked.
Look at the very courageous work of Progressive Democrats of America, for example, that supports clearly an approach based on international law.

The right-wing, of course, clings to its support for extremist policies promoted by AIPAC & Bush

Changing policy in the United States has almost as a direct effect on the movement for Palestine liberation as does changing Israeli policy.
