But diplomats warn that the change in US policy is breaking apart the "quartet" - the US, European Union, Russia and the United Nations - that launched the road map.

A. Who cares what diplomats think?

B. US out of the UN. UN out of the US.

Slowly but surely were smoking out who's with us and who's against us.

The battlelines are being drawn.

GOOD!

How many inocent Israelis have been murdered since this road map was put in place anyway. Since we're dealing with terrorists who don't want peace in the first place anyway, this road map, although well intentioned, never had half of a chance. It's best we face the terrorists' true intentions now, before they acquire WMD, rather than later.

If these diplomats are supposed to be so smart, why don't they realize this simple truth. Oh I know, they too want the destruction of Israel. Sorry but that just isn't going to happen, Israel will survive.

..consumed 2,850 acres of Palestinian land and will give only limited access for 72,000 people to their farmland

That would be roughly .04 acres per person (assuming it's all farmland and they are all farmers). That's some efficient farming!

Back in Iowa, there's a saying: "Good fences make for good neighbors".

In this case, good fences make for living neighbors.

They should threaten to move it a kilometer east every time a terrorist attack occurs.

It would be interesting to see if the terror would stop before the fence fronted on Mecca.

The Israelis shouldn't be building a fence.

They should be sowing a minefield about a kilometer deep.

With Mahmoud Abbas, then Palestinian prime minister, by his side in the White House, he told reporters: "It is very difficult to develop confidence between the Palestinians and Israel with a wall snaking through the West Bank."

Bwahahahhaaha!

Confidence between Palestinians and Israel....please...ohhhh please...you're killin' me!!

(good fences make good neighbors.)

A wall is not the answer; freeing the Palestinians of their terrorist leadership, is.

The obvious money quote. ;-)

This calls for a "warning" or a "celebration"?

The fence is going to allow a great reduction in numbers of attacks. It might not stop the mad bombers, but casual cross-border assaults are going to be nearly eliminated.

Too bad we cannot just relocate all the Jews to the United States, and then if the Religion of Peace harms any or them or any of "US"A, we could then deal with that community by moving them.

Woo hoo. Next, maybe we'll let Taiwan buy whatever she needs to defend herself.

US ends efforts to halt Israel's security wall (We Won - State Dept Loses!)

Works for me (conservative Christian fly-over country guy)

As for the State Dept., I heard an interview with a fellow who has written a book
titled "Dangerous Diplomacy".

He says that when George Schultz (who served in the US Marine Corps!) headed the State Dept.,
he'd have new staff (Ambassadors, etc.) come to visit him in his office.
Schultz would take them to a large globe and request the new State Dept. employee
to "point out your country".

Almost invariably, the new hire would point out the country they were posted to, e.g.,
Nigeria, China, etc.

Schultz would then calmly say, "No, point out YOUR country."

I hope Colin Powell and lots of succeeding Sec. of State would follow this example.

Israel's security should be the primary consideration in this matter.
