UN's Israel Lunacy Spilling Over to Other Areas by Dan Friedman

Who would have thought it was possible to ruin the UN’s reputation? But one of their own employees is trying his best to do just that. At the enormous bureaucracy a special section has been created known as (no irony intended) The Human Rights Council where UN personnel most afflicted with anti-Semitism can find a home and, presumably, be confined. But as this story and this editorial about a UN loose canon so vividly demonstrate, Jew-hatred is a powerful obsession that often drives the Jew-hater off the deep end, making it not so easy to quarantine.

Iran-Backed Terrorists Tighten Their Grip on Lebanon........by Dan Friedman

Let’s face it, the Muslim world plays a game with which America’s diplomatic and intelligence elites are totally unfamiliar. But that also prompts a question: OK, so what’s Israel’s excuse? By allowing D.C. rubes to lead her around by the nose, the Jewish state has backed itself into increasingly tighter corners, until today Israel is almost completely boxed in. Hamastan to its south, an American-armed and-trained PLO “sleeper” militia to its east, and now an entire country taken over by Hezbollah to the north. Fortunately, Israeli Jews still have an escape route through its coastline to the sea. The bottom line? After two decades of failed negotiations, successive concessions and obeisance to Washington, Israel’s enemies have never been closer or better armed. I can hear the mullahs now, “who needs an H-bomb when we can gain the advantage and wipe Israel off the map without getting our hands dirty?” So much for that “wily Jew” canard.

Is Nothing Sacred? PA Offered Israel Jerusalem by Dan Friedman........

First came Wikileaks which destroyed the meme that Israel’s conflict with the Palestinians is the prime irritant in the Arab world.

Now the other shoe has dropped. Al Jazeera's startling revelations yesterday on Israeli-Palestinian peace negotiations clearly show that neither Israeli settlements nor Jerusalem are “obstacles to peace.” For the most part, the PA was willing to give Israel both. That in turn has the Palestinians and their fellow travelers on the liberal-left at each others’ throats, scurrying to cover up to save their ideological butts.

The Wall St. Journal has a clear, straightforward story. And Robin Shepherd has the frenzied reaction from the Guardian newspaper and other pathological Israel bashers in Britain.

Prediction: This story isn’t going away so fast. It’ll take some time before all the parties involved finish applying their spin. A red-faced Abbas is already denying it. So between he and Al Jazeera, which one of the liars do you think lied?
