Olmert preparing Israel for Golan surrender?
February 13th, 2007 · 26 Comments
Is Prime Minister Ehud Olmert trying to prepare Israelis for the surrender of the Golan Heights to Syria?
On Monday, Olmert explained in detail to the Knesset Foreign Affairs and Defense Committee that the only thing that would buy Israel peace with Syria would be ceding the entire Golan. He expounded on the issue despite stating that he remains opposed to negotiations with Damascus at this time.
How will Israel handle the new Palestinian uprising?

I don’t want to get too far ahead of myself, but I would not be at all surprised if Israel’s current renovations outside Jerusalem’s Temple Mount spark a new “Palestinian” terror war.
Remember, the previous “intifada” - dubbed the “Oslo War” by Israelis and the “Al Aqsa Intifada” by the Arabs - was, according to the Arabs, a justified and legitimate response to Ariel Sharon’s 2000 Rosh Hashanah visit to the Temple Mount.
Too little, too late, Hillary

US presidential candidate Hillary Clinton last week belatedly recognized that the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) of Mahmoud Abbas may not be a viable peace partner for Israel after all.
Too bad her husband already made that realization completely irrelevant by helping to immutably entrench the PLO den of killers as celebrated, peace-seeking international diplomats.
Underreporting the Temple Mount renovations

The mainstream media is predictably underreporting the Muslim uproar over Israel’s minor renovation work outside the Temple Mount in Jerusalem.
What they are failing to point out is that the work being done is to stabilize the earthen ramp leading to the Mugrabi Gate, the sole access point to the Temple Mount for Jews and Christians.
And the Palestinians wonder why they have no tourists

A mob of Palestinian Arab youth violently attacked a tour bus carrying Canadian pilgrims at the Mount of Olives in Jerusalem on Saturday.
The attack, which was perpetrated with stones and glass bottles, came amid Muslim riots related to very minor Israeli renovation work on an earthen ramp leading to the Temple Mount.
And the Palestinians wonder why towns such as Bethlehem and Ramallah receive no tourists.
Hamas properly represents the Palestinians
February 11th, 2007 · 10 Comments
Israeli Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni is again playing dumb, publicly asserting that the Palestinians, who can’t even keep from slaughtering themselves, are opposed to the policies of the violently anti-Israel Hamas terrorist organization.
This is really getting old.
