    U.S. transfers $200 M to Palestinian gov't

    US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton on Friday announced that the United States has transferred $200 million to the Palestinian Authority in order to help ease a growing budget deficit. The transfer of aid directly to Palestinian Authority Prime Minister Salaam Fayyad's budget was an expression of confidence in his fiscal reforms, Clinton said. "The ability of the United States to provide support directly to the Palestinian Authority is an indication of the bipartisan support for the effort to secure the peace in the Middle East, as well as for the fundamental reforms that the Palestinian Authority has undertaken," she said.

    Fatah: Our goal has never been peace ... the goal is Palestine

    The Palestinian Authority will resume violence and terror against Israel when Fatah is "capable," and "according to what seems right," Fatah activist Kifah Radaydeh says in a PA TV interview. She states openly that peace is not a goal for Fatah: "It has been said that we are negotiating for peace, but our goal has never been peace. Peace is a means; the goal is Palestine." Radaydeh says that "armed struggle" has not been ruled out and will continue, depending on how "capable" the PA forces are.

    The argument that Israel's possession of the Dead Seas Scrolls is illegal seems designed not to preserve, but to bury the very heritage that the Dead Sea Scrolls reflect. This is in line with a rhetorical tactic that has been periodically advanced by Palestinians, including the current Mufti of Jerusalem who has stated that as far as he can tell, "the Jews have no relation to [the Western Wall]," Judaism's holiest spot. It is no exaggeration to say that Palestinians are conducting not just a political campaign, but a "cultural battle" against Israel as a Jewish state. - NATIONAL POST

    In 1920, Great Britain was given the responsibility to oversee the Mandate over Palestine with the express intention of reconstituting within its territory a Jewish National Home. At the last minute, four-fifths of the territory was given to Israel's enemies. This betrayal was a devastating blow to the Jewish and Zionist leadership, which now saw the promised Jewish homeland reduced to a sliver. - AMERICAN THINKER
