Supreme Court justices already make authoritative pronouncements on everything from the psychology of teenagers to the proper decorating choices of city halls. So I suppose it was only a matter of time before they started telling us how to fix the Middle East, too. And I suppose it was inevitable that it would be Sandra Day O’Connor who took the first step. At least this time she isn’t making her opinion the law of the land.

Update: Ed Whelan has a follow-up on the subject.
