1. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE ROAD MAP FAILS?
By Tom Neumann - Washington Times - July 29, 2003=20
When Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon visits with President =
Bush next week, he will ask a question on the minds of many Israelis: =
What if the "road map" for peace fails?=20
While Mr. Sharon will reaffirm his government's commitment to =
seeking ways to make the U.S.-backed plan work, the increasing evidence =
that the Palestinians are unable or unwilling to keep their end of the =
bargain is raising the obvious question of what to do if the peace =
efforts collapse.=20
This issue was raised during a recent visit to Washington by =
Israel's former minister of internal security, Uzi Landau.=20
To date, it seems, none of the four architects of the so-called =
road map =97 the United Nations, the European Union, Russia and the =
United States =97 has given much thought to the prospect of failure.=20
They appear more interested in meeting their own self-imposed =
road-map deadlines than in the realities on the ground. Yet it is the =
realities, not the deadlines, that will ultimately determine success or =
failure.=20
For example, the United States, which declared last year that it =
would no longer deal with Yasser Arafat, is turning a blind eye to the =
reality that Mr. Arafat is continuing to call the shots. And all four =
sponsors of the road map are ignoring the reality that the Palestinians =
have refused to disarm their terrorist organizations, one of the plan's =
most urgent requirements.=20
The Palestinian leadership claims it is powerless to disarm the =
terrorists or dismantle their infrastructure, as called for by the road =
map. Instead of insisting that they comply, the sponsors are taking the =
easier route: pressuring Israel to make even more concessions than =
called for in the plan.=20
So far, while the Palestinians have done little or nothing, Israel =
has withdrawn troops from parts of Gaza and the West Bank, dismantled =
dozens of unauthorized settlements, eased roadblocks and other travel =
restrictions, released hundreds of Palestinian prisoners and offered to =
pay the Palestinian government millions of tax dollars.=20
Instead of reciprocating, the Palestinians say they can't move =
forward unless Israel does more. They are now calling for the release of =
all prisoners, including known terrorists and murderers, faster =
dismantling of Jewish settlements, further withdrawal of Israeli troops =
and removal of all restrictions on Yasser Arafat.=20
These demands are accompanied by threats from the Palestinian =
terrorist leaders that unless Israel complies, they will resume their =
suicide bombings against Israeli civilians.=20
This is not the way it was supposed to be. The demands go well =
beyond the road map.=20
Yet incredibly, the other road map sponsors =97 the European =
Union, Russia and the United Nations =97 are providing the Palestinians =
with public support on these issues.=20
Worse, they have declared that they intend to continue to deal =
directly with Mr. Arafat as the recognized leader of the Palestinians, =
regardless of the wishes of the United States and Israel and of the many =
Palestinian moderates who are sick of Mr. Arafat's corruption.=20
By conferring this recognition on Mr. Arafat, the United Nations, =
the European Union and Russia seriously undermine the authority of =
Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas to conduct further negotiations =
with Israel, thereby making the chances of success far less likely. In =
effect, they are torpedoing their own road map.=20
At the same time, they appear to be deliberately snubbing Mr. =
Bush, who has declared that the United States will not deal with Mr. =
Arafat and has demanded that the terrorists be disarmed and their =
infrastructure dismantled. They also insult Israel, without whom, =
needless to say, no progress can be made.=20
Ariel Sharon is well aware of the politics involved, and the =
desire of the United States to not only bring peace to the Middle East, =
but to improve its still strained relations with Europe. He will tell =
Mr. Bush that he will continue to do all he can to make the road map =
work.=20
But he will also remind the president that his primary =
responsibility is the security of the Israeli people. Neither he nor any =
other Israeli leader can compromise on this. They cannot be expected to =
make concession after concession without any indication that the =
Palestinians are willing or able to move against the terrorists, or =
seriously undertake any of the other obligations they undertook when =
they signed the road map.=20
And he will make it clear that unless things change, the road map =
is as good as dead.=20
Does the United States have a fallback plan?=20
It should. As things are going, it will almost certainly need one. =
Tom Neumann is executive director of the Jewish Institute for =
National Security Affairs.

2. 'THE LAST ACCEPTABLE PREDJUDICE'
By Suzanne Fields - townhall.com - July 28, 2003=20
The "new" anti-Semitism is as virulent as ever, but it's often =
easy for Americans - Christian and Jew alike - not to notice.=20
Christians and Jews get along here. Evangelical Christians have =
become some of the best friends Jews have, and, for their part, most =
Jews are not as suspicious of Evangelical motives as they once were. =
Since the anti-Semites abroad regard America as the great Satan and =
Israel the little Satan, we all feel equal-opportunity hate.=20
Anti-Semitism is no longer the preserve of the Ku Klux Klan, the =
uneducated, the outcasts and the bigots of the night. The bigotries at =
home are nurtured now on the left, by domestic radicals allied with the =
usual suspects abroad. This is not easy for some of us to get used to.=20
Phyllis Chesler, a left-wing feminist, was a reluctant candidate =
to become a "professional Jew," as she puts it in The New Anti-Semitism: =
The Current Crisis and What We Must Do About It.=20
The role was thrust upon her by men and women she thought were her =
intellectual, emotional and social comrades in arms against injustice, =
but who took an irrational detour into vicious mendacity, spouting =
demented politically correct propaganda against Jews and Americans =
everywhere.=20
"I now find it necessary and sane to think tribally as well as =
internationally to think as an American and as a Jew who is concerned =
not only with justice for all but also with the survival of America and =
of the Jewish people," she writes. "Islamic reactionaries and Western =
intellectuals and progressives who may disagree on every other subject =
have agreed that Israel and America are the cause of all evil. Israel =
has fast become the Jew of the world - scorned, scapegoated, demonized =
and attacked."=20
Angry words, but amply documented. She shows how the new =
antiracist (so called) anti-Zionist shares a common hatred with the old =
anti-Semite. She won't separate anti-Zionism from anti-Semitism, but =
cuts to the core of obfuscation and hypocrisy, recalling how Martin =
Luther King, Jr. responded to a student who attacked Zionism: "When =
people criticize Zionists, they mean Jews. You're talking =
anti-Semitism."=20
She gets to the point of why Israel's enemies abroad, with no =
appreciation of the pluralism on which democracy thrives, hate America, =
too: "In many ways the state of Israel towers above its neighbors both =
morally, politically, and in terms of religious freedoms."=20
As a feminist, she's particularly outraged that many feminists =
have muted their criticism of Islamist misogyny, or how others are =
oblivious to their own self-interests. What could be more ludicrous, she =
asks, than to see grown men marching against Zionism behind a banner =
proclaiming "Queers for Palestine." Queer, indeed. If these men lived in =
an Islamic culture they would be harassed - or worse. Much worse.=20
Some of the enemies she identifies are familiar. Noam Chomsky, =
whose anti-Israel and anti-American books are best sellers on campus, =
catalogs the imperfections of American and Israeli democracies but =
forgives the total lack of democracy in Islamic countries. Edward Said, =
the "prestigious" professor of literature at Columbia University, =
compares the Palestinians under Israeli rule to the plight of the =
European Jews under the Third Reich.=20
What has emerged in the past decade is how the new anti-Semitism =
has become politically and psychologically respectable among western =
intellectual elites: "The American and European Left have made a =
marriage in hell with their Islamic terrorist counterparts."=20
The new anti-Semitism drips into the mainstream with surprising =
ease. Since she went to print, a popular columnist in The Observer, one =
of the most popular of Britain's liberal papers, piously announced that =
he would no longer even read letters to the editor about anti-Semitism =
if they were signed with Jewish names.=20
The Chicago Tribune, with several newspapers following its lead, =
only recently ran a particularly nasty political cartoon depicting =
Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon with a stereotypical hooked nose and =
the Jewish star sewn on his jacket, staring down with pleasure as =
President Bush satisfies his greed by paving "the roadmap to peace" with =
dollar bills. (The Tribune apologized for failing to recognize the =
anti-Semitic slurs.)=20
The Belgian affiliate of Oxfam International, organized to fight =
poverty, posted a cartoon on its Web site depicting a slice of orange =
dripping with blood-red juice: "Israeli fruit tastes bitter. Say no to =
the occupation of Palestine. Don't buy any fruit from Israel." The Simon =
Wiesenthal Center, a Jewish human rights organization," protested on its =
Web site with a reproduction of a Nazi poster from April 1933: "Germans! =
Protect yourselves! Don't buy from Jews!"=20
The new anti-Semitism passes unnoticed among those who should know =
better. Writes Phyllis Chesler: "In a politically correct, multicultural =
world, anti-Semitism is the last acceptable prejudice."=20
Even in America, the land of the free and the home of the bravest. =

3. HAPPY HUDNA!
To give the Palestinians any credit in a month of 167 terrorist =
attacks is absurd=20
By Michael Freund - The Jerusalem Post - July 30, 2003=20
Today marks the one-month anniversary of the Palestinian terrorist =
organizations' decision to declare a temporary hudna, or cease-fire, in =
their ongoing campaign of murder and mayhem against Israel.=20
Reading the press, it would be easy to conclude that this is a =
date almost worthy of national celebration. Take, for example, a July 17 =
Associated Press dispatch, which asserted that "a temporary cease-fire =
declared by Palestinian militants on June 29 has brought a dramatic drop =
in violence."=20
And then there was Monday's issue of The Guardian, which declared =
that there has been "a sharp decline in terror since the end of June."=20
Dramatic drop in violence, sharp decline in terror - it almost =
makes you want to fling open your windows, sweep your arms through the =
air, and declare to the world: Happy Hudna!=20
But the reality, of course, is that there is very little to =
celebrate. For, despite the media's predictable attempts to cheerlead on =
behalf of the Palestinians, the fact is that anti-Israel terror has far =
from petered out.=20
According to statistics compiled by the IDF there have been a =
total of 167 Palestinian terrorist attacks against Israel in the four =
weeks since the hudna went into effect. That averages out to about six =
Palestinian attacks per day, every day, over the past month.=20
A hundred and sixty-seven attacks. Think about that number for a =
second: 167 individual, separate attempts over a 30-day period to murder =
as many Jews as possible using knives, bullets, bombs and stones.=20
Is this really something to cheer about? After all, a cease-fire =
means that the Palestinians are supposed to cease the firing (hence the =
name). Does it really matter if instead of trying to kill Jews 300 times =
per month they have decided to temporarily "cut back" to just 167?=20
Others have cited the "relatively" low Israeli death toll in July =
as proof that the cease-fire is working, since "only" three Israelis and =
one foreign worker have been killed since the hudna went into effect.=20
Aside from the immoral nature of such a statement, which =
necessarily devalues the lives that were lost and the families that were =
destroyed, such an assertion is also patently false. It mistakenly =
assumes that the cease-fire is the primary reason why there has been a =
drop in the number of Israeli fatalities, ignoring the role played by =
the army's efforts to prevent attacks.=20
THUS, FOR example, in the second week of July the IDF captured =
three would-be suicide bombers in Hebron before they were able to carry =
out their attacks. On July 21 soldiers operating near Nablus found and =
dismantled a suicide belt containing 10 to 15 kilograms of explosives, =
while the day before a Palestinian near Jenin was killed when a bomb he =
was carrying exploded prematurely.=20
In other words, it is not that the Palestinians haven't been =
trying to kill Jews of late, it is just that they haven't been =
succeeding. If any one of the dozens of attacks thwarted by the army =
over the past month had not been stopped, the death toll for July might =
very well have been 40 instead of "just" four.=20
Hence, to give the Palestinians even a measure of credit in this =
regard is simply absurd.=20
Indeed, Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) has =
made it plain that he has no intention of disarming or disbanding the =
terrorist groups, who are now reportedly using the hudna to build over =
1,000 Kassam rockets with a range of up to 20 km. for use against major =
Israeli cities (The Jerusalem Post, July 22).=20
And so, even with the cease-fire in place, the violence continues =
and the Palestinian terrorist buildup proceeds apace. In effect, then, =
the only thing that has really changed during the past month is the =
level of gullibility demonstrated by our leaders, who are quick to =
forget that the country is still under attack.=20
The first step toward emerging from this crisis is to return to =
our senses. Israel must remain firm in demanding zero tolerance of =
terror. And zero tolerance means zero attacks. Period.=20
Making excuses for the Palestinian leadership's failure to quash =
terror, or minimizing the extent of the violence itself, is merely a =
recipe for further bloodshed and carnage. For by doing so we come =
perilously close to accustoming ourselves to terrorism and even =
accepting it as part of our daily lives.=20
And that is something which no nation in the world should ever =
have to tolerate.=20
Only by dismantling the Palestinian terrorist regime that has =
arisen alongside Israel - and removing the terrorist threat once and for =
all - can we possibly hope to enjoy true peace and security.=20
And only once Abu Mazen and his Hamas and Islamic Jihad =
accomplices are removed from the scene will we truly be able to say, =
with feeling and even a measure of joy: Happy hudna to all, and to all a =
good night.=20
The writer served as deputy director of communications & policy =
planning in the Prime Minister's Office under Binyamin Netanyahu.

4. THOUGHTS ON THE ROAD MAP TO PEACE
We Cannot Negotiate With Terrorists. Seriously.=20
by Rabbi Ilan D. Feldman - Jewsweek.com - July 24, 2003=20
Editorial note: There were many pro-Israel rallies held this =
past Sunday (July 20) across the nation in cities such as Boston, =
Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Los Angeles, New York, Philadelphia, =
Portland, San Francisco, Washington, D.C. and Jerusalem. One, in front =
of the Israeli Consulate in downtown Atlanta, had nearly 200 people from =
across the denominational and religious spectrum, who showed up in =
support of the Jewish state. One of the speakers at the event was Rabbi =
Ilan Feldman of Congregation Beth Jacob in Atlanta. His remarks appear =
below:=20
Thank you, Reverend Lawler, and thank you all for being here =
today. Blessed are those who come in the name of the Lord.=20
We are united by many things:=20
We are united in our love for the people of Israel, the only real =
democracy in the Middle East;
We are united in our appreciation of the miraculous in the return =
of the Jewish people to its land, in fulfillment of Biblical prophecy;=20
We are united in our respect and admiration for Israel, which has =
shown great courage, both in fighting the wars that have been forced =
upon it, and in exploring every possible road to peace;=20
And we are united as proud Americans, who find ourselves in a =
similar conflict with an enemy that seeks to terrorize us and dismantle =
our way of life.=20
As Americans, during these past 22 months, we have come to realize =
certain rules -- basic principles -- that Israel has known for quite =
some time.=20
Among these realities are:=20
Negotiation and terrorism do not go together. Negotiation is =
something civilized humans do, and when someone embraces terror to kill =
your people, they are kind of hinting to you that they are not =
civilized;=20
If your partner at the table is a statesman by day and a terrorist =
at night;=20
If your partner across the table is a diplomat in English and a =
murderer in Arabic; he does not accept your right to exist and you =
should not be talking to him;=20
If terrorism is tolerated anywhere in the world, it will come to =
your backyard. If you expect your allies to negotiate with terrorists, =
terrorists will expect you to negotiate with them as well.=20
That is why we are gathered here today. The realization of basic =
facts unites us in supporting Israel and its security as it embarks =
courageously on this roadmap to peace.=20
We encourage the world to remember:=20
Which country it is that has already transferred almost all of =
Hebron, all of Jericho, all of Nablus, all of Bethlehem, all of Jenin, =
and many other cities to the control of the Palestinian Authority, and =
offered much more, when it thought there was even a slim chance for =
peace;=20
Which country it is that recognized the Palestinian Authority when =
it thought, in so doing, there was a chance for peace;=20
Which country it is that has suffered the loss of hundreds of =
civilians whose only crime was to go shopping by bus, or to eat pizza in =
a store, or to sleep in their own bedroom, or attend a Passover seder, =
or celebrate a bar mitzvah, or have a coffee, or dance at a night club, =
since the last time it embarked on a road map to peace, and still that =
country looks eagerly for a negotiating partner to emerge;=20
We encourage the world to remember these facts, too:=20
Which society it is that has glorified suicide as a ticket to =
Heaven;=20
Which society it is that prints textbooks that show no Israel on =
the map, of any size at all;=20
Which society it is that has still, 10 years after it promised in =
Oslo, refused to clearly, unambiguously accept the right of the Jews to =
live in a land of their own in the Holy Land;=20
Which society it is that calls murderers of women and kindergarten =
children "freedom fighters";=20
Which society it is in which one risks life and limb to =
demonstrate for freedom or free and open elections;=20
Which society so despises its own children that it would train =
them to kill themselves and use them as examples for other children;=20
There is another point I'm sure we all agree on: the enemy America =
faces embraces the same ideology as those who seek to destroy Israel.=20
As a religious leader I say this: I have heard it said that the =
suicide bomber, the likes of which killed thousands of my fellow =
citizens on a beautiful Tuesday morning in September, is representative =
of a fringe element, that Islam is a religion of peace, that America is =
not at war with Islam as a religion.=20
I hope this is true. I would like to believe this is true. But I =
am confused.=20
Where is the universal, and loud, and consistent, outcry of the =
Imams?=20
Where is the condemnation from the mosques of Saudi Arabia, and =
Egypt, and Jordan, and Iraq, and Palestine, and, yes, my fellow =
Americans, where is the universal condemnation from the mosques of =
America?=20
Whether it is fringe or mainstream, let us face this reality =
squarely: if we think we are fighting a purely military battle, and =
refuse to acknowledge that we are engaged in a war of ideas, we will =
never win this war. Our greatest weapon is our belief, and we should be =
governed by clarity of conviction and faith.=20
I pray that God continues to give Israel the strength and courage =
to pursue peace. And I pray that, as Israel embarks once again on a =
search for a road to peace, that she is provided with a partner across =
the table that has joined the community of civilized nations. For this =
to happen, Israel must be guided by the same clarity and courage as =
President Bush and these great United States:=20
The clarity of President Bush that sent troops and guns to =
Afghanistan, and not diplomats;=20
The courage that sent planes and armies to the Butcher of Baghdad, =
and not messages of appeasement;=20
The moral clarity that is not afraid to use the word "evil doers", =
because that's what our enemies are.=20
Yes, God expects us to love our neighbor.=20
Yes, God expects us to negotiate when we disagree.=20
But God expects us to call murder and cowardice by its real name: =
evil.=20
And we are never to accommodate or negotiate with evil.=20

5. QUOTES AND QUICK NOTES
The Case for Israel
Alan Dershowitz defends Israel. The famous lawyer makes the case =
for the Holy Land.=20
In September 2003, Alan Dershowitz will be releasing a =
revolutionary new book called "The Case for Israel" which will, in =
classic legal fashion, lay out the case for the Jewish State. In =
conjunction with the book's publisher, Jewsweek has been able to get a =
sneak peek at Dershowitz's latest and is now able to share with our =
readers the first ten pages of the upcoming book.=20

"Israel's fight is our fight. And so shall it be until the last =
terrorist on earth is in a cell or a cemetery."=20
- House Majority Leader Tom DeLay=20
-------------------------------------------------------------------------=
-
"One of the unchallenged axioms of American civic religion is =
that each and every group of people on earth must consist of an =
"overwhelmingly vast majority of decent, hard-working, honest people, =
who want peace and are tolerant and freedom-loving and anti-violence."=20
Polls are conducted among Palestinians and they show without =
exception that Palestinians approve of bombings and suicide bombs and =
atrocities committed against Jews, by enormous majorities... These are =
the people with whom Oslo and the Road Map are supposed to produce =
peace.=20
The entire Oslo "peace process" and the "Road Map" are based on =
the naive American civic dogma, adopted by Israeli politicians, holding =
that the vast majority of Palestinians must want peace with Israel. They =
do not."=20

6. HIGHLIGHT ARTICLES
a.. Last Stop on the Oslo Road? A Palestinian state would be a =
terror state, a victory for terrorists everywhere, and a stunning defeat =
for America in the terror war. I think President Bush sees that, but =
knows he has to make ordinary Americans see it too, before he can set a =
new course. He has to sweep away the fantasy haze and make the reality =
of the terrorists-are-us Palestinian identity visible to his countrymen. =
b.. The Fire and the Embers European anti-Semitism and =
xenophobia no longer constitute an existential danger to the Jewish =
people and yet, nearly seven decades after World War II, Europe still =
hasn't managed to rid itself of the scourge of Jew-hatred. It's on the =
rise again in western Europe and not dormant in the East. No real =
antidote has been discovered for the venom of old.=20

<H3>1. <A name=3D1>WHAT HAPPENS WHEN THE ROAD MAP=20
FAILS?</A></H3>By Tom Neumann - Washington Times - July 29, 2003=20
<P><FONT color=3D#800000 size=3D+2>W</FONT>hen Israeli Prime =
Minister Ariel=20
Sharon visits with President Bush next week, he will ask a =
question on the=20
minds of many Israelis: What if the "road map" for peace fails?=20
<P>While Mr. Sharon will reaffirm his government's commitment to =
seeking=20
ways to make the U.S.-backed plan work, the increasing evidence =
that the=20
Palestinians are unable or unwilling to keep their end of the =
bargain is=20
raising the obvious question of what to do if the peace efforts =
collapse.=20
<P>This issue was raised during a recent visit to Washington by =
Israel's=20
former minister of internal security, Uzi Landau.=20
<P>To date, it seems, none of the four architects of the so-called =
road=20
map =97 the United Nations, the European Union, Russia and the =
United States=20
=97 has given much thought to the prospect of failure.=20
<P>They appear more interested in meeting their own self-imposed =
road-map=20
deadlines than in the realities on the ground. Yet it is the =
realities,=20
not the deadlines, that will ultimately determine success or =
failure.=20
<P>For example, the United States, which declared last year that =
it would=20
no longer deal with Yasser Arafat, is turning a blind eye to the =
reality=20
that Mr. Arafat is continuing to call the shots. And all four =
sponsors of=20
the road map are ignoring the reality that the Palestinians have =
refused=20
to disarm their terrorist organizations, one of the plan's most =
urgent=20
requirements.=20
<P>The Palestinian leadership claims it is powerless to disarm the =
terrorists or dismantle their infrastructure, as called for by the =
road=20
map. Instead of insisting that they comply, the sponsors are =
taking the=20
easier route: pressuring Israel to make even more concessions than =
called=20
for in the plan.=20
<P>So far, while the Palestinians have done little or nothing, =
Israel has=20
withdrawn troops from parts of Gaza and the West Bank, dismantled =
dozens=20
of unauthorized settlements, eased roadblocks and other travel=20
restrictions, released hundreds of Palestinian prisoners and =
offered to=20
pay the Palestinian government millions of tax dollars.=20
<P>Instead of reciprocating, the Palestinians say they can't move =
forward=20
unless Israel does more. They are now calling for the release of =
all=20
prisoners, including known terrorists and murderers, faster =
dismantling of=20
Jewish settlements, further withdrawal of Israeli troops and =
removal of=20
all restrictions on Yasser Arafat.=20
<P>These demands are accompanied by threats from the Palestinian =
terrorist=20
leaders that unless Israel complies, they will resume their =
suicide=20
bombings against Israeli civilians.=20
<P>This is not the way it was supposed to be. The demands go well =
beyond=20
the road map.=20
<P>Yet incredibly, the other road map sponsors =97 the European =
Union,=20
Russia and the United Nations =97 are providing the Palestinians =
with public=20
support on these issues.=20
<P>Worse, they have declared that they intend to continue to deal =
directly=20
with Mr. Arafat as the recognized leader of the Palestinians, =
regardless=20
of the wishes of the United States and Israel and of the many =
Palestinian=20
moderates who are sick of Mr. Arafat's corruption.=20
<P>By conferring this recognition on Mr. Arafat, the United =
Nations, the=20
European Union and Russia seriously undermine the authority of =
Palestinian=20
Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas to conduct further negotiations with =
Israel,=20
thereby making the chances of success far less likely. In effect, =
they are=20
torpedoing their own road map.=20
<P>At the same time, they appear to be deliberately snubbing Mr. =
Bush, who=20
has declared that the United States will not deal with Mr. Arafat =
and has=20
demanded that the terrorists be disarmed and their infrastructure=20
dismantled. They also insult Israel, without whom, needless to =
say, no=20
progress can be made.=20
<P>Ariel Sharon is well aware of the politics involved, and the =
desire of=20
the United States to not only bring peace to the Middle East, but =
to=20
improve its still strained relations with Europe. He will tell Mr. =
Bush=20
that he will continue to do all he can to make the road map work.=20
<P>But he will also remind the president that his primary =
responsibility=20
is the security of the Israeli people. Neither he nor any other =
Israeli=20
leader can compromise on this. They cannot be expected to make =
concession=20
after concession without any indication that the Palestinians are =
willing=20
or able to move against the terrorists, or seriously undertake any =
of the=20
other obligations they undertook when they signed the road map.=20
<P>And he will make it clear that unless things change, the road =
map is as=20
good as dead.=20
<P>Does the United States have a fallback plan?=20
<P>It should. As things are going, it will almost certainly need =
one.=20

<P>Christians and Jews get along here. Evangelical Christians have =

Israel has=20

<P>Angry words, but amply documented. She shows how the new =
antiracist (so=20
called) anti-Zionist shares a common hatred with the old =
anti-Semite. She=20
won't separate anti-Zionism from anti-Semitism, but cuts to the =
core of=20
obfuscation and hypocrisy, recalling how Martin Luther King, Jr. =
responded=20
to a student who attacked Zionism: "When people criticize =
Zionists, they=20
mean Jews. You're talking anti-Semitism."=20
<P>She gets to the point of why Israel's enemies abroad, with no=20
appreciation of the pluralism on which democracy thrives, hate =
America,=20
too: "In many ways the state of Israel towers above its neighbors =
both=20
morally, politically, and in terms of religious freedoms."=20
<P>As a feminist, she's particularly outraged that many feminists =
have=20
muted their criticism of Islamist misogyny, or how others are =
oblivious to=20
their own self-interests. What could be more ludicrous, she asks, =
than to=20
see grown men marching against Zionism behind a banner proclaiming =
"Queers=20

<P>What has emerged in the past decade is how the new =
anti-Semitism has=20

intellectual elites: "The American and European Left have made a =
marriage=20

<P>The new anti-Semitism drips into the mainstream with surprising =
ease.=20
Since she went to print, a popular columnist in The Observer, one =
of the=20
most popular of Britain's liberal papers, piously announced that =

<H3>3. <A name=3D3>HAPPY HUDNA!</A></H3>
<H4>To give the Palestinians any credit in a month of 167 =
terrorist=20
attacks is absurd </H4>By Michael Freund - The Jerusalem Post - =
July 30,=20
2003=20
<P><FONT color=3D#800000 size=3D+2>T</FONT>oday marks the =
one-month=20
anniversary of the Palestinian terrorist organizations' decision =
to=20
declare a temporary hudna, or cease-fire, in their ongoing =
campaign of=20
murder and mayhem against Israel.=20
<P>Reading the press, it would be easy to conclude that this is a =
date=20
almost worthy of national celebration. Take, for example, a July =
17=20
Associated Press dispatch, which asserted that "a temporary =
cease-fire=20
declared by Palestinian militants on June 29 has brought a =
dramatic drop=20
in violence."=20
<P>And then there was Monday's issue of The Guardian, which =
declared that=20
there has been "a sharp decline in terror since the end of June."=20
<P>Dramatic drop in violence, sharp decline in terror - it almost =
makes=20
you want to fling open your windows, sweep your arms through the =
air, and=20
declare to the world: Happy Hudna!=20
<P>But the reality, of course, is that there is very little to =
celebrate.=20
For, despite the media's predictable attempts to cheerlead on =
behalf of=20
the Palestinians, the fact is that anti-Israel terror has far from =
petered=20
out.=20
<P>According to statistics compiled by the IDF there have been a =
total of=20
167 Palestinian terrorist attacks against Israel in the four weeks =
since=20
the hudna went into effect. That averages out to about six =
Palestinian=20
attacks per day, every day, over the past month.=20
<P>A hundred and sixty-seven attacks. Think about that number for =
a=20
second: 167 individual, separate attempts over a 30-day period to =
murder=20
as many Jews as possible using knives, bullets, bombs and stones.=20
<P>Is this really something to cheer about? After all, a =
cease-fire means=20
that the Palestinians are supposed to cease the firing (hence the =
name).=20
Does it really matter if instead of trying to kill Jews 300 times =
per=20
month they have decided to temporarily "cut back" to just 167?=20
<P>Others have cited the "relatively" low Israeli death toll in =
July as=20
proof that the cease-fire is working, since "only" three Israelis =
and one=20
foreign worker have been killed since the hudna went into effect.=20
<P>Aside from the immoral nature of such a statement, which =
necessarily=20
devalues the lives that were lost and the families that were =
destroyed,=20
such an assertion is also patently false. It mistakenly assumes =
that the=20
cease-fire is the primary reason why there has been a drop in the =
number=20
of Israeli fatalities, ignoring the role played by the army's =
efforts to=20
prevent attacks.=20
<P>THUS, FOR example, in the second week of July the IDF captured =
three=20
would-be suicide bombers in Hebron before they were able to carry =
out=20
their attacks. On July 21 soldiers operating near Nablus found and =
dismantled a suicide belt containing 10 to 15 kilograms of =
explosives,=20
while the day before a Palestinian near Jenin was killed when a =
bomb he=20
was carrying exploded prematurely.=20
<P>In other words, it is not that the Palestinians haven't been =
trying to=20
kill Jews of late, it is just that they haven't been succeeding. =
If any=20
one of the dozens of attacks thwarted by the army over the past =
month had=20
not been stopped, the death toll for July might very well have =
been 40=20
instead of "just" four.=20
<P>Hence, to give the Palestinians even a measure of credit in =
this regard=20
is simply absurd.=20
<P>Indeed, Palestinian Prime Minister Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) =
has made=20
it plain that he has no intention of disarming or disbanding the =
terrorist=20
groups, who are now reportedly using the hudna to build over 1,000 =
Kassam=20
rockets with a range of up to 20 km. for use against major Israeli =
cities=20
(The Jerusalem Post, July 22).=20
<P>And so, even with the cease-fire in place, the violence =
continues and=20
the Palestinian terrorist buildup proceeds apace. In effect, then, =
the=20
only thing that has really changed during the past month is the =
level of=20
gullibility demonstrated by our leaders, who are quick to forget =
that the=20
country is still under attack.=20
<P>The first step toward emerging from this crisis is to return to =
our=20
senses. Israel must remain firm in demanding zero tolerance of =
terror. And=20
zero tolerance means zero attacks. Period.=20
<P>Making excuses for the Palestinian leadership's failure to =
quash=20
terror, or minimizing the extent of the violence itself, is merely =
a=20
recipe for further bloodshed and carnage. For by doing so we come=20
perilously close to accustoming ourselves to terrorism and even =
accepting=20
it as part of our daily lives.=20
<P>And that is something which no nation in the world should ever =
have to=20
tolerate.=20
<P>Only by dismantling the Palestinian terrorist regime that has =
arisen=20
alongside Israel - and removing the terrorist threat once and for =
all -=20
can we possibly hope to enjoy true peace and security.=20
<P>And only once Abu Mazen and his Hamas and Islamic Jihad =
