It’s About Time!!!

Written by Marty Roberts on February 22, 2010 – 11:55 am -

Naturally, all of Israel’s enemies, including our enemies within, (I’m talking about Israel’s own self-hating Jews and anti-Israel arab citizens) are in a tizzy fit over Bibi’s government decision to officially acknowledge Israel’s rich, ancient Jewish heritage. There can be absolutely no doubt about sited in Hebron and Bethlehem being essential, integral parts of Israel. The Jewish forefathers, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob are buried in Hebron, with their wives, except, of course for Rachel. She is buried outside of Bethlehem. HER tomb was also officially acknowledged by Israel’s government. And don’t forget that King David ruled over the ancient kingdom of Israel from Hebron for SEVEN YEARS before the government moved to Israel’s present and eternal capital, Jerusalem.

It’s about time.
Cave of the Patriarchs



PM grants heritage status to West Bank religious sites


Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu announced yesterday that the Cave of the Patriarchs in Hebron and Rachel’s Tomb in Bethlehem will be added to the list of the country’s national heritage sites.

By Fadi Eyadat and Jonathan Lis

Speaking at a special cabinet meeting in the northern town of Tel Hai, Netanyahu said that right-wing religious party Shas persuaded him to add the two sites to the list.

“Our existence depends not only on the Israel Defense Forces or our economic resilience – it is anchored in … the national sentiment that we will bestow on the coming generations and in our ability to justify our connection to the land,” Netanyahu said.

Tel Hai, which is part of the kibbutz Kfar Giladi, was the site of a 1920 battle between Zionist settlers and Bedouin. It was led by Joseph Trumpeldor, the one-armed soldier whose fall in battle is cited in Israeli military lore.

Negotiations With The Palestinians Have No Meaning

Written by Marty Roberts on February 21, 2010 – 10:44 am -

Once again, the palestinian leadership under Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazzen) proves that the negotiaion process with Israel is meaningless. What is the purpose of negotiations if one party will only “negotiate” issues that have bee pre-determined prior to the actual talks? This is what the palestinians insist on…
Stubborn



Abbas considers options on peace talks restart

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas is considering his options on resuming indirect peace talks with Israel after meeting U.S. and European diplomats this week, a senior aide said Friday.

RAMALLAH, West Bank (Reuters)

“We have asked for an official meeting of Arab ministers of the follow-up committee and have told them that our consultations, coordinations and inquiries are still ongoing with the Americans, Europeans, Russians and the United Nations,” chief negotiator Saeb Erekat told Reuters.

Erekat dismissed an Israeli newspaper report Friday that Abbas had told Austrian Foreign Minister Michael Spindelegger at a meeting this week in Ramallah that U.S.-mediated peace talks could resume in the coming days.

The Haaretz report said Spindelegger told Israeli officials he had heard from Abbas of his readiness to resume talks.

“The one who announces the Palestinian position is the Palestinian side, not Haaretz or the Austrian foreign minister,” Erekat said.

An Israeli diplomatic source in Jerusalem said: “There is no official word from the Americans or the Palestinians but there have been all kinds of messages from Western diplomats indicating that talks could restart.”

There was no comment from Vienna.

Abbas has been seeking details from U.S. officials on how a proposal that Washington would host “proximity talks” involving Israeli and Palestinian envoys would work.

Aides say Abbas wants guarantees that any such talks would quickly move to seeking final agreements on the core issues of the conflict — borders, settlements, right of return for Palestinian refugees and Jerusalem — witin specific terms of reference and a set timeline.

Abbas broke off negotiations with the previous Israeli government in December 2008 in protest at its offensive in the Gaza Strip and has refused to hold talks with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu while Israel expands West Bank settlements.

In November, Netanyahu ordered a 10-month building freeze in some settlements on land Israel captured in 1967. The United States and Western powers want Abbas to drop his demand for a total freeze and get back to negotiations.
