"the battle of wills over Judea and Samaria is already being joined in earnest."

Sure, talks without preconditions might seem to be the best path to an agreement. But an agreement is the last thing the leaders of Arabs in Palestine want. What they want is the destruction of Israel. How do Israelis negotiate with the likes of those?

Seems Americans, disregarding apologists for racist anti-Zionists, continue to support Israelis in their struggles against Islamic terrorism.

It is not particularly difficult to understand why haters of Israel are now resorting to racist attacks on Israelis. These delusional folks invariably confuse their dreams with reality, the prime fantasy being that the US would abandon Israel in favor of alliances with Islamic entities supporting cutthroat terrorists. As they see their hopes and prayers going unfulfilled, they lash out like snakes against a world that is unwilling to acquiesce to their perverted weltanschauung.

For the last several months we have witnessed the continuing failure of US-led efforts to bring about a peace agreement between Israelis and Arabs. It seems Israelis are unwilling to bargain away their existence, much to the chagrin of those who would have them do so. But, to their credit, President Obama and his representatives continue the effort, in spite of Arab intransigence.

Seems no one wants any part of Hamas.

Hadn't realize to what extent Arafat was such a proficient thief. One would think running terrorist operations would have been enough, but, no.

And the Golan

Barak as usual pragmatic

Speaking of pragmatism -

"We Palestinians have resolved to shoulder responsibility for getting ready for statehood."

If events of the past few weeks have not yet convinced those who wish no good upon Israel that the Israelis are going to do what they believe is best for Israel, nothing will. These Zionist-haters will just have to go back to their favorite anti-semitic white supremacist websites and sulk. Because PM Netanyahu will compromise only when there is a clear-cut chance to advance peace, and because President Obama isn't about to dispatch a squadron of F-16's to strafe Tel Aviv. Sorry about that.

Like all disagreements between allies, this current dustup will be soon forgotten.
