His name is LarryLIED.
Isn't Peres the Foreign Minister (Secretary of State)? He's got just as much power in the Knesset as does Sharon because of the seats he controls.
"LarryLIED."
Yep, Howlin; I do believe they think they are winning with this strategy. I think they will keep up these attacks with increasing severity and frequency so as to "goad" Israel into action. Then Israel will pull out all the stops.
But what would likely happen next? Why, the politically correct "international community" would come down on Israel like a ton of bricks: "Bad Israel -- how dare she defend herself??? Look at all those innocent Palestinian women and children she's murdering. She is perpetrating a holocaust of the innocents."
The Pals think they can beat Israel by manipulating "enlightened world opinion" so as to further isolate and destabilize that nation. A point would sooner or later be reached when Israel's own domestic Left wing starts bawling out loud (actually, that's already started); then the resolve to defend herself and save the nation may simply dissolve.
What is needed to win this war, as Bibi Netanyahu said to our Congress shortly after 9-11, is moral clarity. But that's the very thing the Pals are trying to "fudge up." Consider the statement of Tuesday's Hamas suicide-bomber-du-jour: "To kill the infidel is a beautiful thing, to be killed oneself is a beautiful thing." What kind of morality does that express?
First Israel. Then guess who's "next." JMHO FWIW. -- bb
You got me, brother. Throw her mug on the side of a milk carton and be done with it. But seriously, this story should have stayed on their local news stations. Screw soccer moms and screw ratings! And your right, the Mid-East is on the verge of a serious meltdown.
Three Dead & 40 Wounded In Jerusalem Suicide Blast
Source: Jerusalem (CNSNews.com)- Still reeling from massive bus bombing, a suicide bomber blew himself up at a crowded bus stop during the evening rush hour at the French Hill intersection in Jerusalem on Wednesday. Jerusalem Police commander Micky Levy said that there were a number of dead, but could not say how many. Reports said at least three people died and 40 people were wounded, eight seriously, in the second deadly attack in as many days. According to radio reports, the bomber ran across the busy intersection into a crowd of people and blew himself up. Israeli police had been on high alert for the last two days following general warnings that there were suicide bombers primed and ready to carry out attacks in the city. As a result of Tuesday's attack in which 19 people were killed, the Israeli government decided overnight to takeover and hold onto Palestinian Authority-controlled areas as long as terrorism continues. In response to the attack, White House spokesman Ari Fleischer said that President Bush understands that Israel has a right to defend itself.
A coalition government is a great idea if you want to pander and compromise your way right into hell...glad we don't have one of those here...
Isn't it Israeli land already? Didn't they win it fair and square in a war, which the Arabs started, in 1967? I'm certainly no expert on ME affairs, but that is my understanding of it.
Pray for GW and Isreal
Talk about something coming back indeed, Betty. Been home with Hizbollah for a while?
