US in "damage control" mode trying to soothe tensions before UN vote on Palestinian statehood

The Obama administration is desperately trying to soothe tensions between Turkey and Israel on the eve of the UN vote on Palestinian statehood.

My take on this is that they are simply trying to calm down the Turks, so that when the Israelis refuse to play ball after the vote, UN, the Arabs, and even the Obama administration can point fingers at them and say they are the ones being unreasonable.

I mean, it's not like there's any danger to Israel here....

Oh, wait.............
