“The State of Israel was established so Jews could determine their own fate, to fight and defeat their enemies, not to be human dust but to turn their enemies to dust. The State of Israel can fulfill this mission and therefore at least in this regard [can be] the realization of generations of dreams. But as long as its leaders are of the race of Flavius [rather than the race of Bar Kokhba], they may turn Israel over to the worst of its enemies…” – Dr. Arieh Eldad, “Israel at 2000 and 60” [emphasis added] *

There were several main goals of President Bush’s recent address to the Knesset in Jerusalem: to reinforce the perception that the government of America is a staunch friend of Israel; to shore up the expulsion regime of the American elite’s client regime headed by Ehud Olmert; to soften up the hearts and heads of Israeli Jews to accept more ‘painful sacrifices’ for ‘peace’; to distract attention from America’s arming and training of Fatah and to draw a facile distinction between Iran, Fatah and Hamas; and to roil the superficial debate between the GOP, ‘Team Red’ and the Donkeys, ‘Team Blue’ about which has done more to empower jihad and world disorder…a tough call.

This is a story of beautiful old books, photos, sentiments and of a missing picture that could tell how things went awry. It is a tale of freedom blunted, of hope stretched taut and of lasting possibility… Read the rest of this entry »

The diplomatic initiative, the Road Map which is the ostensible contribution of the Bush Administration to settling the problem the nations have with a Jewish state is simply bad old wine in new bottles. The entire Jewish land for Arab promises of peace processes are an extension of British policy for “Palestine” dating at least to 1915. These policies have been methodically, often brutally pursued even though the results have included genocide and ceaseless attrition.
