Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
i think bush needs to jus tshut up and read a bible.
doesnt he know that land belongs to the jews?
If this keeps up we will be spit out.
The only right of return that should be on the table is a one way ticket to Jordan or Egypt.
Great, George. Now, let’s talk about the Mexicans’ right to return the southwest to Mexico...
I’m all for their returning to Jordan.
But he has no problem dictating the terms of where Israelis build their homes.
"Right of return" means the destruction of Israel.
Bush is really disgracing himself and shaming our nation to insure a steady flow of Saudi paychecks after he leaves office. It is just repulsive to behold.
The sooner both Bush and Olmert are gone, the better it will be for Israel.
So will this include the Greek-Cypriots who lost land in northern cyprus when Turkey invaded in 1974?
Will this mean all those british investors who have bought up the Turkish government sold land “abandoned” by those who fled for their lives will be forced to surrender the land to the rightful original owners?
The state department is incompetent. Understatement of the century.
Abbas will just say that his people aren't firing the rockets.
A better question for Abbas would be, "What would you do if rockets were being fired from property you do not control, and killing your people and dammaging their property?" Or maybe Bush should ask Olmert?
ML/NJ
The Pres. haas promoted open borders in the US and now he’s doing it there. Not much of a surprise.
Isn’t the “peace process” just beautiful.
Some of these candidates for president should criticize this right here and now.
They don’t need to “bash Bush” but simply point out that Israel shouldn’t be targeted in the face of terrorism.
Making concessions to people who wan’t to destroy Israel and make sure it no longer exists is as preposterous as making concessions to Nazis or Communists was in the 20th Century in hopes of peace.
Olmert and Bush are said to be pressured by money. Israel is dependent on American foreign aid and the United States is dependent on Arab oil, along with Arab and Chinese Communist money to prop up our debt.
You may be right about his disgracing himself with his actions vis-avis the Palestinian problem, but your comment about the Saudi checks is WAY out of line. He’s Geroge Bush, not Bill Clinton, remember?
Lets see if I understand Bush’s foreign policy correctly...
1. First lets rip Kosovo from Serbia and create a new Muslim state in Europe
2. Then, lets admit Turkey to the EU and flood Europe with 50+ million more Muslims
3. Finally, lets grant the Palestinians the right of return, and guarantee the destruction of Israel.
4. And so America doesn’t feel left out, lets give Amnesty to 30+ million illegals regardless of where they came from
The only thing I can figure is that W has been promised untold riches by the Saudis after he retires. All he has to do is roll over on a few of America’s friends. No problemo, right Jorge? Sadly, Iraq aside, radical Islam appears to be winning the GWOT.
“Visiting US President George Bush called on Israel to remove “illegal outposts” in the West Bank, saying that “they simply ought to go” during an evening press conference shared by Prime Minister Ehud Olmert on Wednesday.”
Right by conquest is as old as time itself.
Bush knows this, and knows why Israel is in possession of various pieces of its neighbors (e.g. they were ATTACKED by them).
I honestly don’t get the obsession American presidents have with trying to push something through on this part of the world at the end of their terms when it is clear the so-called PA simply doesn’t have the ability, much less the desire, to actually resolve and end their ongoing war with israel. Clearly they think it is important, and I think it is for reasons other than ‘legacy’ in at least some cases.
What is the deal?
Bush, once again, demonstrates his lack of touch with reality in foreign affairs.
This is the evolved “Compassionate” Conservative in action - no different than a typical liberal.
I guess we'll both find out when he leaves office. Condi Rice's mentor Brent Scowcroft has been a paid Saudi "consultant" for years, and you can bet she is looking to cash in as well. I owe Bush nothing in terms of a pass here. He is echoing Rice's revolting words. I can only assume his motives are the same.
“I honestly dont get the obsession American presidents have with trying to push something through on this part of the world at the end of their terms “
S-A-U-D-I O-I-L D-O-L-L-A-R-S
The same incentive that permits Wahhabist lunatics to establish madrassehs and mosques in America and western Europe.
Now I know Bush has gone nuts. If the palestinians are allowed to return to Israel, Israel won’t be Israel anymore. There won’t be enough Isralis to make it Israel any longer considering the hordes of Arabs claiming to be “Palistinian.”
Now I’m wondering just when Bush is going to address the Mexican’s right to return to the US. Oh, wait he’s already decided that.
