#3  This is an apparently terrifying thought: Palestinian men can no longer blow up Jews on Monday, seek dialysis from them on Tuesday, get an Israeli paycheck on Wednesday, demonstrate to CNN cameras about the injustice of it all on Thursday — and then go back to tunneling under Gaza and three-hour, all-male, conspiracy-mongering sessions in coffee-houses on Friday. Beware of getting what you bomb for.

This passage sounds very Steyn-like.

#2  The Palestinians will, in fact, get their de facto state, though one that may be now cut off entirely from Israeli commerce and cultural intercourse. This is an apparently terrifying thought: Palestinian men can no longer blow up Jews on Monday, seek dialysis from them on Tuesday, get an Israeli paycheck on Wednesday, demonstrate to CNN cameras about the injustice of it all on Thursday — and then go back to tunneling under Gaza and three-hour, all-male, conspiracy-mongering sessions in coffee-houses on Friday.

#1  King Abdullah - perhaps the most reasonable man in the region — ever ask himself about questions of symmetry and reciprocity

um...that would be a no! And it's an issue that is taking up more conversation time here in the US with those who used to be sympathetic to the plight of the Palestinians, as American's begin to realize that the WOT is really about our Islamic neighbors unbending wishing to implement Sharia world-wide. Try as we may to fit it into our melting pot ideals, it is simply not compatible with our democratic system that relies on the separation of church and State. This problem is not one we have faced before and it is causing us all to realize that the problems and beliefs of this century are very different than the last.
