Just which countries are on the UN Human Rights Council?

That’s not hard, Arafat was from Cairo.

Attempts to triangulate on the I/P issue are failing because they involve moral cowardice that is evident to both sides. The result is the counter-intuitive increase in polarisation that we are now seeing. That is our reward for failing to stand up for what we believe – that Israel has a right to existence and peace, and that those who seek its destruction (i.e. far too many Arabs) are a disgrace. The massive pro-Palestinian lobby has been pushing against flab for some 40 years now and think they can keep on doing so. Who is going to inject a bit of backbone into Western leadership, and tell them that Israel is there to stay?

Well isn’t that what politicians are supposed to do? It’s kind of his job, isn’t it?

Zahalka stands up against the interest of the Israeli Arabs. About two years ago some alarming statistics showed a catastrophic trend: More and more Israeli Arabs volunteered to do national service either serving in the IDF or working in different government run social services. Zahalka started a vicious campaign against it, called the volunteers traitors, demanded from the Arab community to excommunicate them together with their supporters. He did everything in his power to block something that could have brought closer the Arab citizens to the Israeli mainstream. He is not different from any other populist demagogue politicians who happily and proudly selling out his constituency.

Abbas has now called for the UN to consider Goldstone ASAP because Hamas caused a fuss about Abbas dropping it. They organised demos and threatened not to hold hands with Fatah.

Now Abbas is hurling insults back at Hamas saying that by forcing Goldstone they are delaying reconciliation.

While don’t this pile of crap just fight it out once and for all and make their effing minds up. (Hey, you don’t help things by calling them “a pile of crap”) Well calling them nice names and inviting them to tea ain’t achieved anything! Basically they don’t know what they want and they want different things. Its a shambles.

“The Palestinians never miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity”

The West will crush Goldstone because it will deny them the freedom to confront terrorism and retrospectively label their own actions as “War Crmes”. Example: At the very outset of Iraq War II the Coalition (that means USA and UK) fired missiles into a restaurant believing that Saddam and sons were attending but KNOWING that they would kill civilians sitting down to dinner.

Those are actions nowhere near the scale of anything Israel is accused of since Israel was ctively engaged in combat and the Coalition were not!

Well, at least in Israel they can stand up. In Hamas-ruled Gaza, women cannot even sit down in a motorcycle.
