[history]
He loves the arsonist's work and never had it in him to govern.
The Arab summiteers in Beirut were on their way to dinner, it turned out, when a young man from the West Bank town of Tulkarm struck at Netanya for that terrible "Passover massacre." In a land soaked with blood, this was a deed whose memory will endure for years to come.

General Arafat, as he calls himself, has an award for Jew killing, the Nobel Prize! Those Norwegians sure know how to pick winners!

Great editorial, thanks for the bump. I'd like to meet this Arab author, although he's probably in hiding if he writes like this all the time.
But the "Arab street" had seen that as the beginning of a broader withdrawal, perhaps a millennial fulfillment of the idea that the Jewish state was not destined to last.
That's the one element of peace in my heart through all this - the Jewish state will last, from here on out, forever. Thus saith the Lord God of Israel.

Thanks to TomGuy for the
above.
Still wondering if the only way to honorably "solve" the Arab-Israeli conflict is to use "ethnic cleansing" (by which I mean the polite, but forceful relocation of all 3 million Palis outside of Eretz Yisrael -- which is not "genocide" which is how some on the Left use it).
I think this is justified, even required, by the almost 10 years of official "judeo-nazi" indoctrination by the PA of the Pali masses. The current wave of suicide bombers is unprecedented, and is the direct (and obviously planned) result of brainwashing that started with Pali children as young as 1st and 2nd grade. What unspeakable, vomitous horror.
And to the extent that this Pali policy was conducted, funded, supported, promoted, and otherwise enabled by their Arab bretheren (notably Syria, Jordan, Lebanon, Egypt, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia) then it is concomittant upon these countries to pay for their sins by taking in the Palis.
Nothing less than the equivalent of an "Allied invasion of Nazi Germany" will suffice to rid the world of this monstrosity. Eject all Palis, round up their leaders (including "clerics" and "teachers"), put them on trial for
Crimes against Humanity, and then hang them in public.
There is NO POSSIBILITY of a negotiated settlement within the lifetime of these people, not when the PA has been preparing its people, not for peace, but for visceral hate and unrelenting war.

The Arabs should heed this man, but they and most of Islam have become a cult of death, and worship Satan.

As reported on FOX this morning,the Red Cross was helping Arafat with supplies.We all know how much good the Red Cross has done for Israel and the United States!

Great post. Great piece. About a cravenly cowardly foul and obscene degenerate Egyptian turd-burgling bastard. And his Evil gutlessly-murdering spawn.
To: Pokey78
He was offered statehood some 18 months ago. He walked away from it and unleashed a phantom of incalculable power: the Right of Return, a claim not on the West Bank and Gaza, but on Jaffa and Haifa and Galilee, a way, insinuating and understood by his people and by Arabs beyond, of contesting Israel's very existence and statehood.
Behold the truth!

Great post, Pokey. The photograph of the child with the practice explosives around his waist tells the whole story of the past, present and future Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Our government chooses to ignore this evil whenever it protects the hide of the bloodthirsty Arafat.
To: agrace
Yes..another fine article from Fouad.
Fouad Ajami has been on many talk shows...interviewers like Charlie Rose[One of the best], often draw upon his insight.
Fouad is honest..from criticism of the Saudi regime..to error in trans Arabic designs too destroy Israel..Fouad tells it like it is.
His main theme...Islam must shed this blood libel concerning Israel..or go to its ruin .
Fouad seldom gets airtime on the prime movers...He is a media threat...they are only interested in hype..not common sense.
To: Light Speed
Hey, thanks for the bit of background. As a result I just did a Google search, interesting stuff.
Here's what he wrote on 9/14/01 for US News. A quote from the article -
The anti-Americanism blows at will an alibi for socioeconomic ills with deep roots, a simplifying answer for populations drawn to a civilization they can neither master nor reject.
I think I'll check him out further, and keep my eyes open for him, thanks again.

What kind of sick twisted evil "religion" trains its toddlers to blow themselves up?
