Truth About "Middle East Peace" Finally Surfaces

The good folks at Powerline relay the following morsel of stating the obvious:

"The PLO, in a New York Times piece by its mouthpiece Michael Tarazi, has made explicit what has long been its position - 'two people, one state.' In other words, to hell with creating an independent Palestinian state next to Israel; let's have one state in which we will overwhelm the Jews with numbers and rout them through violence.

"As Barry Rubin explains in the Jerusalem Post: 'For the PLO destroying Israel is more important than building an independent Palestinian state or relieving the Palestinian people's suffering. That is why Yasser Arafat turned down Israel's offer at Camp David as well as the Clinton plan, both of which offered a viable independent state with its capital in Jerusalem.' It follows that 'any chance for progress in the peace process is an illusion. While road maps, declarations, delegations, and other efforts may contribute to peace in the long-term, in the immediate context they are useless exercises in wishful thinking.'"

Well, well, well. I'm glad somebody in Big Media is finally willing to acknowledge what was written into the PLO charter thirty freaking years ago by Yassir Arafat himself and never, EVER, not ONCE in ALL that time EVER rescinded.

And yet this "road maps, declarations, delegations, Rose Garden handshakes for the snapping politicopaparazzi" BS will still continue, because for the Left, idiocy never dies. Especially anti-Semitic idiocy. It's the closest those godless heathen will ever come to eternal life.
