I can't "knock around" anything today, friend. I've already been called a Jew hater more than once today.

I don’t object to your plan, Jeff, except in one respect. None of the land to which you refer should be occupied by Arabs to begin with. So placing conditions on their continued occupation of it simply validates that occupation. Arabs must be removed from the ‘Palestinian territories,’ irrespective of the ‘Palestinian’ people’s supporting/harboring (or not) of terrorists.

Talk of ‘Palestinian people’ is comparable to talk of ‘Lilliputians.’ They are a fictional people, just as Palestine is a fictional country. And their fictional existence as a people began (quite coincidentally) in 1948. Before that fateful year, no one had ever heard of them.

And what we generally refer to as Palestine was a land that nobody (except maybe a handful of Bedouins) really wanted .... until the Jews who emigrated there brought prosperity in the form of agriculture and industry. All of a sudden an arid, non-productive land became a desirable ‘homeland’ for a diverse group of opportunistic Arabs.

Israel made a big mistake when she embraced the Oslo Accord, and she will be traveling down that same deadly road if she takes seriously the new Roadmap. In ’93 she turned over large portions of her land to thugs who, in return, simply had to agree to live in peace with the Israeli people. Unfortunately ‘peace’ (at least as regards their co-existence with Israel) is not a part of the Arab vocabulary. For Israel, accepting the Roadmap now, a decade later, would amount to being burned twice. And this time the burn would prove fatal.

The Muslim world begrudges (and always will) Israel her sovereignty, and her desire to live in peace. To carve a ‘Palestinian state’ out of Israel, when Arabs have more than twenty Arab states (with nearly three hundred million Arab inhabitants) in which to choose to live, is ludicrous.

In truth, the purpose of the creation of a Palestinian state is twofold: (1) to rob the Jews of what little land they already possess as their own, and (2) to cut Israel in half, and thereby provide a catalyst for the final, deadly assault that will render the state (and people) of Israel extinct. Minus the West Bank, Israel’s increased vulnerability would prove fatal.

In the late ‘70s, a PLO executive committee member said, ‘Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct Palestinian people to oppose Zionism.

Twenty years later, Yassar Arafat said, ‘Since we cannot defeat Israel in war, we do this in stages. We take any and every territory that we can of Palestine, and establish a sovereignty there, and we use it as a springboard to take more. When the time comes, we can get the Arab nations to join us for the final blow against Israel.

Could their intentions be more explicit? And could the current ‘Roadmap’ play into their hands any more than it does?

God bless and keep the state of Israel. America surely isn’t.

Stalin and Beria could have used you in dealing with the Volga Germans, Chechyans, Kalmuks, Tartars, and Ukranians.
