Peace Doesn't Exist. Neither Do the Palestinians by Daniel Greenfield
Excerpt: Salah Abu Miala, a Hebron businessman, traveled to Bahrain to attend the Bahrain peace conference. When he returned home, he was arrested by the Palestinian Authority. A security official for the Islamic terror group admitted that there was no actual charge. "It was a warning," he said. "He must understand the implications of this sort of collaboration." Collaboration with the United States. The country that set up the PA and lavished billions in aid on it. (It has become an intractable situation. At this point after all the decades of continually increasing domination of all the Palestinians by powerful, radical, power hungry leading groups (who take a lot of money and do really well for themselves), there is no serious support for the Two State solution, the fanaticism that says just wipe out Israel has taken over more than enough of the people so that those who have any degree of reasonability are now irrelevant. Mothers are proud to have their kids blow themselves up to kill a few Israelis, or go to jail for years for stabbing one or two. Hamas demands tons and tons of aid, and uses materials meant to build houses and schools and hospitals to build tunnels. The brainwashing of the kids starts in kindergarten, and there's always the new crop of fanatics coming up. If I were an Israeli I'd back away from being nice at all. I wouldn't have collapsed the tunnels, I'd have booby trapped them like crazy to make sure a few more fanatics died in them. For every rocket coming in, three would come back. I wouldn't have border guards shooting to kill the guys throwing rocks or gasoline bombs, I'd have then shooting for the groin and kneecaps so they'd survive in bad shape for everyone to take care of. And Israeli prisons would have to turn into somewhat unpleasant places, with extremely limited visiting privileges. The only way to get people like this to back off is to get them to where they are actually afraid of you. And that's not happening. Israel can forget about trying to get the UN and the international press to be reasonable with them, they will always be the terrrible occupiers. Sometimes when the other guys give you the name, you may as well embrace it and play the game their way. --Del)
