Good Will Gestures Lead to Terror.

The recent suicide bombing in Dimona, that left one dead and more than 20 wounded, and the increase in terror attacks on the roads perpetrated by 'moderate' PA terrorists has brought a sudden surge of understanding of the underlying problem amongst Israel's politicians. Is it just a political survival instinct or genuine concern about the country and the people that they represent that will materialise in action? Likud Knesset Member and former Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom said "we must understand that all the good will gestures to Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman and Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) help terrorists."

The director of the Almagor terror victims' association said, following Monday's attack "we shouldn't be surprised if the perpetrators had previous criminal-terrorist records."

"Perhaps after Olmert releases prisoners with blood on their hands and enjoys his photo-op with Gilad Shalit, he will also find the time to visit the bereaved families and promise them that Israel will arrest the terrorists yet again," Meir Indoor said bitterly. Indoor was referring to the prime minister's decision to relax the criteria that determine which prisoners with "blood on their hands" are eligible for freedom in a prisoner swap deal with Hamas terrorists in exchange for kidnapped IDF Cpl. Gilad Shalit.

Shas Chairman Eli Yishai declared that: "The government's previous decision to abandon the Philadelphia Route without supervising forces was a serious mistake". Terrorists have used the route for years to smuggle weapons and explosives into Gaza and Israel.

Kadima Interior Minister Meir Sheetrit said bluntly, "We have to guard our own border, without worrying about what anyone else thinks or does about it. Whether the Egyptians guard or don't guard the border is not our problem. Our problem is our border and we have to protect it – sometimes by force if necessary."

Left-wing Meretz party Knesset Member Ran Cohen claimed that the blast proved the need for the government to negotiate with Hamas. (It is hard to change the belief system of a self-hating Jew, especially a politician. May be by moving them all to live in Sherod for a while, under the shower of Quassam rockets, would change their mind!)

Food for Thought. by Steven Shamrak

It is time to face the truth: Hamas is Islamic terrorist organisation, which was legitimately elected by residents of the PA controlled territories. As a result, so-called Palestinians have made quite a clear declaration that they have no interest in recognising Israel or letting Jews live in peace. Israel can easily rectify the problem by removing all of this hostile population from Jewish ancestral land. A Jewish national government, with vision and integrity, is urgently needed! Self-serving politicians must go!

Winograd Panellist Admits a Whitewash. Professor Yehezkel Dror, a member of the Winograd Commission investigating the Second Lebanon War, admitted in an interview that he was influenced by the desire to keep Prime Minister Ehud Olmert in power so that Israel would continue making concessions to the Palestinians and opposition leader Benjamin Netanyahu would not have a chance to be elected. (Time to get rid of this politicly sickening, self-serving elite!)
