One-State Solution, or Closing The Triangle

Here's a newsflash to take to bed: there is no Palestinian civil war, nor will there be, and no substantive conflict between Fatah, Hamas, and Islamic Jihad, because they all agree on the essentials - the annihilation of Israel:

Earlier this evening [Cap'n Ed] posted an update on the tensions between Fatah and Hamas regarding the efforts by Mahmoud Abbas to use a plebescite to bypass Hamas and work towards a two-state solution. At least, that has been the reporting from the mainstream media. However, CQ reader Dan and Charles at LGF point towards the actual document - and we find no evidence that the so-called National Conciliation Document envisages any such solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

The proposal has some problems in its presentation at the Jerusalem Media & Communication Centre. Either the translation is sketchy or the original language has a number of grammatical errors. The writing uses long run-on sentences that seem to double back on themselves. However, it clearly never states any intention of recognizing Israel, nor of accepting 1967 borders for a Palestinian state.

Please do read the NCD. Then see if you can get Israeli Prime Minister Ohlert to read it. And comprehend it. And perhaps even grasp the bitter reality that it doesn't matter who runs the Palestinian territories and how much land the Jewish state relinquishes, because no Pal leader can or will ever be a "peace partner," and the anti-Semitic Western press will never report this truth.

Well does the Cap'n analogize this grinding saga to the 1938 Munich summit. The "Middle East Peace Process" is a testament to the utter fecality of the global post-Holocaust vow, "Never again," and the immortality - and impenetrability - of the appeasement mentality.
