Mitchell, Armed with US Media, Trying to Extend Building Freeze

Mitchell is armed by mainstream American media that generally have accepted U.S. President Barack Obama’s view that Israel should freeze all building for Jews in areas of Jerusalem claimed by the PA, as well as all of Judea and Samaria. Last fall, Prime Minister Netanyahu agreed to a 10-month freeze as a concession to both the Obama administration and Abbas.

Residents told Voice of Israel government radio that Mitchell should be concerned with their humanitarian situation in the face of Gaza terror instead of worrying about increased shipments for Gaza while its terrorists continue to attack Israel.

Hopefully, Bibi has figured out no concessions on Israel’s part will satisfy Obama. Each concession is met with a new list of demands, each more unreasonable than the last. Eventually Israel will have to set its foot down and say “no more”. That time might as well be now on the issue of settlements. There is a growing suspicion that Obama considers the reestablishment of Israel to be a historical and political mistake that he (Obama) has been divinely appointed to remedy.

The Israelis need to stand firm - Obuttocks will be gone, sooner rather than later, and attempting to accomodate him merely leads down the same path to tragedy that's been too well-travelled before.
