Arab leaders meeting in Sudan have promoted a land-for-peace offer to Israel, even as Israelis voted in polls that could give their next government a mandate to impose permanent borders with the Palestinians. The annual Arab League summit demanded the opposite approach - a return to Middle East peace talks sponsored by international mediators - and leaders criticised threats to cut aid to the Palestinian Authority when Hamas takes office. The leaders also reached a summit deal to provide funding for cash-strapped African Union troops in Sudan's Darfur region amid international pressure to accept the dispatch of a UN force.

A draft final communique, which is not expected to undergo substantial changes, reaffirms an Arab initiative of 2002 which offers Israel peace in exchange for withdrawal from land occupied in the Middle East war of 1967. Israel rejects the offer. The statement calls on donor countries to respect the electoral choice of the Palestinians, who gave Hamas a sweeping victory in January, and fulfil commitments to give them aid.

Foreign ministers meeting at the weekend recommended their governments maintain aid to the Palestinian Authority at $55 million a month and waive Iraqi debt worth billions of dollars. Nasser al-Kidwa, the Palestinian foreign minister, said: "It is basically to continue with the funding as it has been."

#1 You don't get funding. Democratically electing terrorists and declaring your national imperative is genocide makes you terrorists and enemy combatants.

Electing terrorists democractically does not magically turn them into anything else. It simply shows the choice of Palestinians to join with terrorists - by majority vote.

We respect your electoral choice to become dead. fools.

"land for peace" - you lost the damn war. It's a chance you take when you attack a country. Piss off. Couldn't do it the first time around - or the next or the next or the next or....

Did you notice the Arab meeting voted no more funds for you either. You're screwed, people. Wanna change your minds - democratically that is - throw 'em out - and vote to live?

No? Didn't think so. You know your role in the muslim world. Eliminate Israel or you don't exist in the minds of any other muslim.
