Walls dwarfing the Berlin wall appropriating some of the best remaining Palestinian land springing up over night while Condi yawns about it (winking the entire time) and Perle tells Effi Eitam, Minister of the hard Right National Religious Party, to fight the Road Map. (Story below)
So for 2 years it's been "demonize Arafat", now it's "Let's get the elected President of the Palestinians out so we can deal with Abbas, the puppet we and Israel like because he's willing to sell the Palestinian people down the river on our terms". Then we have the nerve, the absolute hypocritical audacity to be shocked that the Palestinians would resist.
It's time for Israel to start conducting sincere peace talks because Israel controls the thermostat, not the Palestinians.
Smoke and mirrors. Lies and deceit. Deport Arafat and the Intifada will EXPLODE- no wall will be thick enough or high enough to protect the Israelis.
All because of the machinations and colonial lust of 3 Right-wing powers.
Sharon Mum As Minister Slams 'Map' In N.Y. Talk

The minister, Effi Eitam of the National Religious Party, slammed Bush's Middle East "road map" Monday in a talk to the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, declaring that the president's plan was "worse than the Oslo accords." According to attendees, Eitam told the 30 communal leaders present that Israel could never accept a Palestinian state, a key element in Bush's "vision" for the Middle East.
Moreover, attendees said,
Eitam declared that he had been encouraged to fight the road map by no less a figure than Richard Perle, the former chairman of the Defense Policy Board, a Pentagon advisory panel.
((note: yes the same Perle, right-hand man of Bush, who derailed Clinton's peace talks

Eitam reportedly told the Jewish leadership group that he had received a message from Perle urging Israel to reject the road map and arguing that Jerusalem should not negotiate with terrorists, just as the United States refused to negotiate with Saddam Hussein or Osama bin Laden.

During his turn at the conference's podium, according to several sources in attendance, Eitam said that Israel could never accept a Palestinian state in the West Bank, and that the Palestinians should therefore push for a different solution. Eitam reiterated his longstanding proposal for a Palestinian state to be created in Jordan and the Sinai desert.
