Israel violates new UN Resolution demanding that they exit all Palestinian cities. The US abstained from voting because they disapprove of recent Israeli aggression, but don't want to piss them off because they want their support for the Iraq invasion. Israel is disappointed that the US isn't supporting them. But, someone on Bush's staff realizes that this is just too much of a double standard for their $200 million ad campaign to handle. It puts them in the difficult position of trying to get support to attack a country that might someday attack someone else while ignoring an ally who's engaging in an internationally condemned act of aggression.
So, to avoid any outright hypocrisy, the Americans are just pretending it isn't happening.
