So what's the surprise? Sharon said months ago that he would not allow Bush to play Neville Chamberlain and surrender Israel to the latter Hitler, Arafat. At moments like this, when Israel's future is in the balance, the last thing the free world needs is a president who doesn't know his true friends.
When the time comes to attack Saddam, Israel and the U.S. can move together toward Baghdad on a road paved with the rubble of Ramallah. Who needs Arab "allies"?
Yeah, right! That's going to help a lot on staging areas. I believe that Israel has a right to defend itself, but it's defending itself at the cost of the US. If the US gets nuked or hit by bioterrorism, what's Israel going to do all alone in the world?
