1. A CHRISTIAN'S LAMENT
By Elwood McQuaid - Jerusalem Post - January 12, 2004=20
By currently invoked, politically correct reckoning, when the =
Palestinians finally achieve statehood, Jerusalem will be lopped in half =
and become the capital of two nations "living side by side in peace." =
That's the dream.=20
But dreams rarely reflect reality. And nocturnal pleasantries =
inevitably vaporize when exposed to the harsh light of morning. Such =
will be the case when foreign interlopers, dreamers, and wishful =
thinkers impose their concepts for the "new Middle East" on the citizens =
of the State of Israel.
I say "on the State of Israel" because Israelis will be doing all =
of the giving, and Palestinians all of the taking while complaining that =
their portion still is not enough.=20
Already the Palestinian Authority and its commissars have staked =
out police-state-like positions on what they will create and enforce in =
Jerusalem if they have their way.=20
For proof, listen to the words of Yasser Arafat's appointed mufti =
of Jerusalem. In a recent sermon delivered at the Temple Mount's Al-Aksa =
mosque and broadcast by PA radio, the mufti asserted that 70 years ago, =
the Committee of the League of Nations issued a statement giving Arabs =
the rights to the "Burak Wall" (Western Wall). Translation: No reference =
to the Western, or Wailing, Wall is legitimate because the wall is the =
exclusive province of the Muslim Wakf.=20
In a 1997 interview with Aaron Lerner, director of the Independent =
Media Review & Analysis (IMRA), the late Palestinian minister of wakf =
and religious affairs, Hassan Tahboob, explained the practical =
implications of that claim.
Jewish worshipers, he said, would be allowed to pray toward the =
Wall, but be kept at least two meters away from it. They would not be =
permitted to touch the sacred stones and the practice of inserting =
prayers into the wall's crevices would be no more.=20
Presumably, some sort of barrier would restrict access. Under =
those circumstances Muslim guards would probably be posted between =
worshipers (both Jewish and Christian) and the "Al-Burak Wall" to =
enforce its Islamic sanctity.=20
What Western masters of appeasement in the name of peace do not =
choose to consider is the fact that conceding the Old City, Temple =
Mount, and possibly the Western Wall to absolute Muslim authority =
literally excises the heart and soul from the anatomy of Judaism and the =
Jewish people.=20
IN JUNE of 1967, Moshe Dayan voiced the desire pent up in the =
hearts of Diaspora Jewry for two millennia when, referring to the Old =
City, Temple Mount, and Western Wall, he declared that the Jewish people =
had returned to Jerusalem, "never to part from her again."=20
By no stretch of the imagination is it incorrect or imperialistic =
for Jewish people to claim as their heritage the place King David =
lawfully purchased from Aurunah the Jebusite.=20
On Mount Moriah the Jewish people built and maintained their =
magnificent Temples and made sacred pilgrimages from the far reaches of =
the known world to worship there. And all this transpired many centuries =
before Islam sprung from the birthing chamber.=20
To dignify the illegitimate Muslim claims of exclusivity to the =
places where the Jewish Temples stood and Jesus worshiped and ministered =
is no less than an act of international thievery of indescribable =
proportions.=20
Anyone deluded into thinking the Palestinian Authority would be a =
respectful and considerate custodian of areas sacred to Jewish people =
and Christians should think again.=20
a.. Article 6 of the Palestinian Constitution states, "Islam shall =
be the official religion of the state."=20
a.. Article 7: "The principles of the Islamic Shari'a are a =
primary source for legislation."=20
a.. Article 8: "Jerusalem shall be the capital of Palestine and =
its seat of government."=20
a.. Article 25: "Palestinian citizenship is secure and permanent =
for any Arab who lived in Palestine before May 1948. It is transmitted =
from father to child."=20
a.. Article 32: "The right of the Palestinian refugee to return to =
his home and the original home of his ancestors is a natural right which =
cannot expire. Its exercise may not be delegated nor surrendered."=20
Edward B. Miller, in a January 15, 2003, guest editorial titled "A =
Constitutional Milestone?" which ran in the National Review Online, =
aptly commented:=20
"Furthermore, a constitution that enshrines a right of return to =
Israel for all Palestinians, claims exclusive sovereignty over =
Jerusalem's Old City, or codifies the PLO's role... as sole =
representative of the Palestinian people will hardly create an =
atmosphere in which talks with Israel over final-status issues can be =
restarted... For the PA to attempt to legitimize such unreasonable =
expectations in a constitution will only subject Israel to further =
suicide bombings and the region to further turmoil."
An old spiritual expresses the desire to be "Walking in Jerusalem, =
just like John," one glorious day. If these seemingly intransigent =
Palestinian demands continue to generate a colossal, Western diplomatic =
cave-in, it is unlikely that either the apostle John or the singers of =
spirituals will be welcomed or even allowed to set foot on the holy =
ground confiscated by the sons of Ishmael.=20
Nor will they be allowed within six feet of the Western Wall. =
Guess they'll have to wait for a tour of the "New Jerusalem" =96 the one =
waiting for us just over the horizon.=20
The writer is a prominent Christian author and syndicated radio =
broadcaster in the US.

2. OUT OF THE CLOSET
Jerusalem Post Editorial - January 12, 2004=20
In the space of two days, the Palestinian leadership threatened =
Israel first with the pursuit of a binational state, then with that old =
stalwart, declaring a state in all of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The =
first threat at least had the virtue of honesty, since it describes the =
real Palestinian agenda.=20
According to Reuters, Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qurei =
called Israel's security fence " an apartheid solution to put the =
Palestinians in cantons. We will go for a one-state solution... We will =
not hesitate to defend the right of our people when we feel the very =
serious intention [of Israel] to destroy these rights."=20
Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat put it another way when he =
accused Israel of "burying the two-state solution by building the wall =
in the West Bank and confining us to towns that are prisons." We are =
supposed to understand both statements as threats of last resort, not as =
what the Palestinians actually want. Most likely a pressure tactic, a =
report in The New York Times speculates.=20
By this conventional wisdom, when Israel says it is willing to =
help create a Palestinian state, it is bluffing. And when Palestinians =
say they do not want a two-state solution, they are bluffing. The truth =
is the reverse.=20
It should be clear by now that Israel believes in a two-state =
solution more than the Palestinians do. The fence, far from being =
inconsistent with such a solution, is actually a somewhat desperate =
attempt to impose one.=20
For all the talk of "apartheid" and "cantons" one might think that =
the fence will divide up the Palestinian areas. A glance at the now =
widely available maps (www.mfa.gov.il) shows that the fence route runs =
mostly along the Green Line. The route was clearly chosen to maximize =
the number of Israelis inside and Palestinians outside. As result, only =
about 6 percent of the West Bank would be on the Israeli side of the =
fence.=20
If Prime Minister Ariel Sharon pushes through his unilateral =
"disengagement" plan, the result would be many fewer roadblocks and the =
relocation of the settlements that most threaten the contiguity of the =
Palestinian areas =96 the exact opposite of "cantonization." What the =
Palestinian leadership really seems to be afraid of is that the fence =
and disengagement plan will once again reveal that it, not Israel, is =
desperately trying to avoid a two-state solution.=20
If Yasser Arafat really wanted a state, he first of all would not =
have turned one down at Camp David. But if he thought the fence were =
blocking a state and wanted to prevent that, he could end his jihad =
against Israel, implement the road map, and the fence project would =
quickly be dropped. Though some might want to build the fence in any =
case, it is inconceivable that the project would continue if there were =
a real option to negotiate a permanent border as part of a peace =
agreement.=20
When the Palestinians complain about the fence, they are arguing =
that Israel should continue to lay itself open to the terrorism they =
refuse to lift a finger to prevent. It is a mark of the world's =
knee-jerk support for the Palestinian cause that such an argument can be =
advanced with a straight face.=20
How obvious can it be that the fence is a function of Palestinian =
terrorism, and that the Palestinians could at any time prevent its =
construction by halting terrorism?=20
Qurei's threat, though quickly withdrawn, is the most explicit =
admission in some years that the true Palestinian goal is not a =
two-state solution. A "binational" state is a transparent euphemism for =
the elimination of Israel.=20
The Palestinians are constantly trying to change the subject away =
from their unique terrorism-saturated culture and their dream of =
creating Greater Palestine through the demand of "return." So far, the =
US and Europe have largely stood by as the Palestinians have detoured =
from the road map and made Sharon's disengagement plan increasingly =
inevitable. A decision against Israel's security fence in the =
International Court of Justice, for example, might be the final nail in =
the coffin for the road map.=20
Why should the Palestinians fight terrorism when they are =
successfully turning Israel into a pariah state just for defending =
itself?=20
If the West wants to save the road map, it had better turn the =
spotlight away from the fence toward the terrorism that built it.=20

3. WORSENING THEIR OWN LOT
By Jerusalem Newswire Editorial Staff - January 14, 2004=20
A Palestinian jihadist bomber killed four Israelis and wounded 12 =
more Wednesday morning at Gaza's Erez Crossing - an entry point into =
sovereign Israel that is one of the more prominent expressions of the =
Jewish state's attempts to assist the Palestinian Arabs financially =
despite the current terrorist war.=20
Thousands of Palestinians use the crossing ever day to seek, and =
usually find, employment from the hands of those the majority of them =
hate as loathsome foes.=20
Israeli officials and military commanders pointed out that =
perpetrating the attack at such a location underscored how the =
Palestinian Arabs were more than willing to sacrifice their own economic =
wellbeing for the sake of murdering more Jews and being able to claim =
"military" victory.=20
Since launching the Oslo War in September 2000, the Palestinians =
have succeeded in dealing devastating blows to both their own and =
Israel's economies.=20
Responsibility for their financial plight thus rests squarely on =
their own shoulders.=20
A detriment to themselves
"The Erez Crossing allows Palestinians to cross over into Israel =
for the purpose of work. Here we see how Palestinian terrorism not only =
strikes at Israelis, but also is a clear detriment to improving the =
Palestinian economy," Prime Minister's Office spokesman David Baker told =
Ha'aretz.=20
A senior IDF source told The Jerusalem Post the attack would only =
"serve to prevent thousands of Palestinians [from placing] bread on =
their table."=20
Israel did its best, amid unrelenting Arab violence, to facilitate =
the Palestinians' ability to finding work among the Jews, Gaza Division =
commander Brig.-Gen. Gadi Shamni said. Now, as a result of Wednesday's =
bombing, the Erez Crossing "will be closed for several days."=20
Another result of the bombing will be that Arab women will in the =
future have to endure the more rigorous security checks normally =
reserved for Arab men.=20
Nurturing terror
But perpetuating the rank living conditions of the Palestinians is =
exactly the point of such attacks, one Palestinian official suggested on =
Israel Radio.=20
The official, a member of Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement, said =
Wednesday's bombing had been carried out precisely to provoke the IDF =
into sealing off the Gaza Strip, thus cutting thousands of Palestinians =
off from their sources of income.=20
This, in turn, would lead to greater support for the terrorist =
organizations among the populace, he argued.=20
If the official believes what he says, and is not simply trying to =
dissuade Israel from closing Erez, that revelation would suggest what =
many have been saying for years - that nurturing terror is more =
important to these organizations than improving the lot of their own =
people.=20
The fact that most Palestinian Arabs consistently come out in =
support of the terror groups, and the PA does nothing to dismantle them =
- implicates the vast bulk of the Palestinian populace and leadership in =
the destruction of their own economy.=20
Ignoring God's Word
In Genesis 12:3, God vows that He "will curse him who curses you =
[Abraham and his descendents through Isaac]."=20
That the Palestinians' economic plight is recognized as being =
directly caused by their campaign to murder Jews and drive Israel again =
from its God-given land demonstrates that the above verse is still =
enforced by the Almighty.=20
The same passage also contains God's promise to bless those who =
bless Israel.=20
Their own fault
Wednesday's bombing adds to the argument that Western beliefs =
about Israel forcing the Palestinians to live in squalor are based on =
Arab and anti-Israel propaganda.=20
Earlier in the week, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon pointed out that =
Israel's new security fence, which will further adversely affect the =
economic situation of Palestinian in Samaria, would not have to be built =
but for Palestinian attempts to slaughter Jews en masse.=20
Palestinian terrorism has itself resulted in Israel having to take =
security measures that deny the Palestinians several avenues of economic =
prosperity - measures that were not deemed necessary prior to the PLO =
takeover in 1993.=20
Before 1993, there were no plans to build a fence, and =
Palestinians entered and worked in sovereign Israel virtually at will.=20
From their 1948 rejection of the UN partition plan to Yasser =
Arafat's rejection of Ehud Barak's offer at Camp David in 2000 and his =
decision to launch the Oslo War, the Palestinian Arabs have always been =
their own worst enemy.=20

4. THE EU'S AID TO TERROR
By P. David Hornik - FrontPageMagazine.com - January 12, 2004=20
The European Union=92s aid to the Palestinian Authority ends up =
funding terror attacks against Israelis.
And there=92s nothing you can do to get the EU to care about it.=20
That was the gist of a talk given recently at Israel=92s =
Ben-Gurion University by Ilka Schroeder, a 25-year-old member of the =
European Parliament and former member of the German Green Party.=20
Schroeder and French European Parliament member Francois =
Zimeray=97despite pressure from their colleagues and over the strong =
objection of EU Commissioner for External Affairs Chris Patten=97were =
able to muster 170 members of the 626-member Parliament to demand an =
inquiry into the problem of EU money going to Palestinian terror. Last =
February 3, the European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) announced that it was =
opening an investigation into =93allegations of misuse of funds donated =
by the European Union in the context of EU budgetary support to the =
Palestinian Authority.=94 OLAF=92s most recent statement, in =
mid-November, was a denial that European funds have gone to finance =
Yasser Arafat=92s Al-Aksa Martyrs Brigades.=20
Yet Rachel Ehrenfeld, director of the American Center for =
Democracy and author of Narcoterrorism, Evil Money, and most recently =
Funding Evil, a study of the financing of international terror, wrote in =
EUobserver that =93volumes of the Palestinian Authority=92s own =
documents, including many graced by Yasser Arafat=92s own signature, =
order the Palestinian Ministry of Finance=97recipient of hundreds of =
millions of dollars in EU budgetary aid . . . to pay members of the al =
Aqsa Martyrs Brigade for killing Israeli citizens or to pay for the =
procurement of explosives and illegal weapons.=94=20
Why can=92t the EU come clean? =93The Europeans,=94 Ilka Schroeder =
said at Ben-Gurion University, =93supported the Palestinian Authority =
with the aim of becoming its main sponsor, and through this, challenge =
the U.S. and present themselves as the future global power. Therefore, =
the Al-Aksa Intifada should be understood as a proxy war between Europe =
and the United States.=94=20
In an earlier address in New York, she said it is =93an open =
secret within the European Parliament that EU aid to the Palestinian =
Authority has not been spent correctly. The European Parliament does not =
intend to verify whether European taxpayers=92 money could have been =
used to finance anti-Semitic murderous attacks.=94=20
Schroeder, in other words, is not optimistic. She feels her =
efforts to expose Europe=92s complicity in the murder of Israelis have =
come to naught=97and that the biggest obstacle is on the Left. Asked by =
the Jerusalem Post last week how the European Left greeted her role in =
initiating the OLAF inquiry, she replied: =93They thought I was =
absolutely crazy and they couldn=92t understand why anybody would stand =
up for Israel. It has been hardest to make my point among the Left =
because they are the most into anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism. For me =
it=92s disappointing, because I believe the more left-wing people are =
the more they should be interested in some kind of liberation and =
emancipation. For me, the vast majority of Palestine is very much =
against those aims and is very much regressive. I can=92t understand why =
[the Left] is blind to this, and why they are so blind to the history of =
Israel and the Jews and anti-Semitism.=94=20
It sounds as if Schroeder, a 25-year-old who has already shed her =
Green illusions, is in the grip of a laudable idealism that=92s still =
mixed with baffled naivete. She needs to ask herself why the same Left =
that couldn=92t care less about concentration camps in North Korea or =
mass murder and torture in Saddam Hussein=92s Iraq, that sees no human =
rights problem in Cuba and instead swoons before its bearded despot, the =
same Left that sees all evil as emanating from the Free World and =
primarily the United States and Israel, would do anything but applaud =
the murder of =93imperialist=94 Israelis by =93oppressed=94 heroes like =
the Palestinians.=20
As for her notion of the Al-Aksa Intifada as a proxy war between =
Europe and the United States, it=92s both compelling and =
questionable=97more compelling in regard to countries like France and =
Germany, less so in regard to countries like Britain and Spain. It=92s =
easy to adduce other reasons for the EU=92s overall willingness to fund =
anti-Israeli terror, from traditional anti-Semitism (which Schroeder =
acknowledges as a factor), to the desire to deflect terror from Europe =
itself and keep it safely to the south, to the desire to appease local =
European Muslim voting blocs, to the desire to stay in the good graces =
of oil-rich Arab regimes. What=92s clear is that, one way or another, =
Europe is addicted to Jew-killing; if today, amid its high-flown human =
rights rhetoric, it no longer engages in it directly, it=92s able to do =
so by proxy, and it=92s not about to stop.=20
Europeans like Ilka Schroeder and Francois Zimeray, who swim =
against the current and refuse to accept their status as underwriters of =
murder, have their work cut out for them. It=92s good to know that =
there=92s any light at all coming from a Dark Continent that spawned =
Nazism and communism and now not only grovels at the feet of =
Islamofascism, but aids and abets it.=20

5. QUOTES AND QUICK NOTES
Suicide Mother
By Steven Plaut - FrontPageMagazine.com - January 15, 2004=20
You all recall the world famous court ruling by our King Solomon? =
The one about the two mothers each claiming the live baby was hers? As =
you recall, Solomon said he would chop the babe in half. The true mother =
said, "No, give him to her, just save his life." You see, she preferred =
he be raised by some other strange woman, not his mother, rather than =
die. All of which brings us to the Palestinian analogue of that =
momentous ruling. Yesterday a Palestinian mother of two young children, =
Rim al-Riashi, blew herself to bits as the seventh Palestinian suicide =
bomber woman, in the Gaza Strip. She murdered four Israelis, and wounded =
9, two of them quite seriously.=20
You see, she preferred that her two young children be raised by a =
stranger rather than forego the pleasure of murdering Jews through her =
bombing them via herself. She had set off the metal detector, claimed =
she had a metal implant in her leg, wept that she really needed to pass =
through the checkpoint, showed her ID proving she was mother of two =
youngsters, and the compassionate guards let her pass through. She then =
set off the detonator. Murdering the guards that had showed her pity.=20

<P>According to Reuters, Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qurei =

the=20
reverse.=20
<P>It should be clear by now that Israel believes in a two-state =
solution=20
more than the Palestinians do. The fence, far from being =
inconsistent with=20
such a solution, is actually a somewhat desperate attempt to =
impose one.=20
<P>For all the talk of "apartheid" and "cantons" one might think =
that the=20
fence will divide up the Palestinian areas. A glance at the now =
widely=20
available maps (www.mfa.gov.il) shows that the fence route runs =
mostly=20

<P>If Yasser Arafat really wanted a state, he first of all would =

that the project would continue if there were a real option to =
