      No to Israeli unilateralism

      Posted by Billbar from Salon

      By annexing West Bank lands, claiming Jerusalem's Old City and its holy sites exclusively as Israel's own, drawing a new "security border" along the Jordan Valley and keeping in place, at least for now, the military occupation in the West Bank, the convergence plan would essentially kill the decades-old Palestinian dream of self-determination. The plan is likely to lead to neither peace nor stability.

    Israel-Hamas truce announced

    The religious had always relations with the Hamas. A strong Hamas, a weak OLP {niet anymore: the OLP is now strong again in  cis jordan), or the possibility to reunify again the two side in a democratic process like in Maroco, for exemple. Where is  the interest of Israel ? what are the rules of the game ? War and trouble is never good for Israel.

    Obama blasts Bush over 'Nazi' comments

    If it ever does hit him…which, maybe in his elderly years…when no one will talk to him, it will break him. He has to be made to see the direct effects of his policies. I don’t know how that can be done. I suppose if he were to be put on trial…

    Perhaps if the GOP and half of Congress didn’t enable his delusions, he might have some self-doubt.

    Jon, I just don’t think it’s going to hit him. He’s so detached – it’s so clinical. I don’t expect it to ever hit home.
