Baker is a vile person and this report of his is as well.

I pray that President Bush tell Baker to stuff it, throws it away and stays strong and determined!

GHWB crying the other day was very telling. I doubt many folks will truly understand why for months.

You say the concept should be rejected, because it is clear that it would be the destruction of Israel.

But is it permissible to use the possibility of the destruction of Israel as a bargaining chip? In other words, you Israel give up Jerusalem and the Arabs give up the claim that would destroy you. Fair exchange?

I find it immoral. Therefore it should not be a concept, it should not be entertained, it should not be mentioned in the West.

The other side of the coin is that the Arabs will never ever under any circumstance give up that "right of return" claim. Real peace between Israel and the Islamics is impossible. Israeli concessions are pocketed with both glee and cravings for more.

What a report such as this does, what the West does constantly, is buttress the Islamic view that victory is inevitable. Tomorrow, next year, in one hundred years or a thousand.

They have both the time and the will to continue fighting. Their rewards are everywhere you look. No one will get a better Christmas present then what the Baker report gave the Arabs/Islamics.

Standing on the threshold of the abyss ping

The 1993 Oslo peace accords between Israel and the Palestinians calls for a resolution of the issue of Israeli and Palestinian "refugees" as part of a final status agreement that would include the creation of a Palestinian state.

But they do not use the term "right of return", which is a long-standing Palestinian demand -- rejected by Israel -- that Palestinians who fled or were driven out of what was to become the Jewish state in 1948, as well as their descendants, be allowed to return home.

This report is left wing and anti-semitic wishful thinking.

Precisely. Baker is essentially a socialist, and the man who famously said " F... the Jews!" a few decades ago. This is the man who had the brilliant idea to persuade Ronald Reagan to raise taxes. He's a cynical leftist politico interested, as are all leftists, in the consolidation and use of power by the elite, defined as him and his associates.

The media, of course, and the Democrats, love him, but GW's legacy will be permanently ruined if he goes anywhere near this guy.
