I don't follow your logic.

Islamists have now been positively identified as the enemy, and (the majority) of Palestinians and their backeres are Islamists. .....It's really not too difficult.

How could betraying Palestinians help us against Al Quaida? Or in Sadr City?

No, I think this is an indication that things are not going well at all.

How could betraying Palestinians help us

Look, the Palis betrayed us. The Prez drew up the roadmap, and condition #1 of that map was for them to stop murdering innocent civilians. They failed (as is their habit), so now they're suffering the consequences.

Betraying Palestinians?

Here is from Terje Rod Larsen of Jenin "massacre" fame from tonights TV news in Norway:

"The Oslo process was about land for peace. Israel gave the Palestinians land, but got no peace"


Who betrayed who?

Whiskey, you've got some interesting use of language when discussing Israelis and palestinians. For Israel, and Sharon, it is "blackmail". You have not supported that term at all, yet used it twice. The definition of blackmail: Extortion of money or something else of value from a person by the threat of exposing a criminal act or discreditable information.

When it comes to pallies, you use the terms "abandoned" and "betraying" - surprisingly, however, you mean it is the United States abandoning and betraying the pallies.

As for Israel blackmailing the U.S.: please explain what dark secret Israel knows about the U.S. to force our actions.

As for the U.S. abandoning and betraying the Pallies: please explain what obligation we have to a people that are outspoken in their hatred of the U.S.
