They gotta stop cooperating with USrael first and reconcile, not undermine, Hamas.
LIFTING the SIEGE is PRIORITY ONE!
"Palestinian leader rebukes Israel on shrine" by Associated Press | March 2, 2010
HEBRON, West Bank - The Palestinian Cabinet moved its weekly meeting to Hebron yesterday, a symbolic protest against Israel’s addition of a contested shrine in this volatile West Bank city to its list of national heritage sites.
I've had enough symbolism, folks; I need real things now.
Israel’s decision last week drew widespread international criticism....
Yeah, so what? That's all it ever is.
How about throwing some SANCTIONS on THEM!?
Yeah, that's about the time world leaders feel the grip on their balls.
Israelis and Palestinians have clashed frequently in the past over two West Bank shrines added to the heritage list: the Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron and Rachel’s Tomb in Bethlehem.
The city’s brewing tensions were on display yesterday when a group of settler youths, some as young as 4 years old, threw rocks and cursed at Palestinians not far from the traditional grave of Abraham, considered the father of both Judaism and Islam.
Yeah, that is ZIONIST HOSPITALITY on DISPLAY!
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas denounced Israel’s move as an “attack on the holy places,’’ and his Islamic militant Hamas rivals in Gaza called for a new uprising.
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel said the decision was about preserving culture and not connected to politics.
Over the past week, Palestinians have thrown stones and clashed almost daily with Israeli troops in Hebron, a divided city where 500 Jewish settlers live in heavily guarded enclaves amid 170,000 Palestinians.
Yeah, the poor, poor, *ews, puke.
That has been SOOOOOO PLAYED, MSM!
Netanyahu has tried to calm tensions, saying the plan was to protect the holy sites and without infringing on Muslim freedom of worship.
You hear some s*** buzzing, readers, because I sure do smell a stinker.
However, Palestinians fear the decision is another sign that Netanyahu wants to hang on to significant parts of the West Bank, a territory they want for their future Palestinian state, along with Gaza and East Jerusalem.
Yeah, well, he already said they are keeping all settlements as part of a future deal (one that will never come because Israel wants it all) as he lectures Palestinians about preconditions.
Can Bibi smell the hypocritical stench, or is that another arrogant Zionist immunity?
Senator John F. Kerry of Massachusetts told reporters in Jerusalem yesterday that he understood the Israeli leader’s desire to preserve a historical site. “But the timing and the manner of the announcement needs to be taken into account in the future,’’ Kerry said.
Oh, yeah, you find a LOT of THAT kind of GRIPING LATELY!!!
--more--"
Well, the silence didn't last long, did it?
And could Israel really be any more ARROGANT, folks, because let's face it, if there is one thing Zionists are not it is naive!
JERUSALEM - Israel enraged Palestinians by announcing new West Bank settlement construction on the same day Vice President Joseph Biden landed in the region to promote negotiations.
So how does shit in your face feel, Joe?
Israel’s decision to build 112 housing units on lands Palestinians claim for a future state highlighted the tough road ahead.
Also underlining the difficulties are sharp divisions between Palestinian moderates and militants as well as an Israeli government opposed to many concessions seen as necessary for peace....
Israel authorized the new apartments in the West Bank despite a pledge to halt all new settlement building - angering the Palestinians just as Biden landed in Israel....
I never took them seriously anyway.
I've learned that when a Zionist Israeli speaks it is a lie.
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu sounded upbeat after his meeting with the US envoy. “I believe.... the diplomatic process is not a game, it is real, and rooted first and foremost in [Israel’s] security.’’
Yeah, we know you control our government, Bibi, you needn't flaunt it (but being the arrogant Zionist he is, he will).
Later yesterday, the Israeli leader welcomed the new start to negotiations in a speech in Jerusalem, saying: “I hope the proximity talks will quickly lead to direct talks that would really allow the promotion of peace.’’
He stressed, however, that negotiations would only succeed if the Palestinians recognize Israel as a Jewish state and that Israel’s security be guaranteed.
But NO PRECONDITIONS from their side, pfffft!!
That is for the Palestinians to decide, but for my part, I will never recognize Israel as a nation or Jewish state.
NEVER AGAIN!!!
Jewish construction in the West Bank and East Jerusalem is a particularly sore point with the Palestinians....
It is a SORE POINT with EVERYONE not a Zionist or Zionist-serving slave.
In Washington, State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said Israeli officials had explained that the construction was approved before the moratorium.
Yeah, so EVERYTHING is COOL, huh?
Crapping in the Vice President's face is no problem, huh?
