Arabs Look Past Two-State Solution to One Arab State Solution...............from Dan Friedman
A piece in the UK’s Guardian written by a prominent “Palestinian” intellectual and former PLO negotiator admits quite openly the two-state paradigm is a thing of the past, and reveals that the new Arab strategy “bypasses the notion of an independent Palestinian state on part of Palestinian soil” and set its sights on “the entirety of Palestine before 1948.” This admission – that it’s all or nothing - is quite sobering since up till now we’ve only heard it delivered as a warning coming from Jews and Israelis on the Right who are usually dismissed.
Read it for yourself here.

"...Without a regional strategy for the Middle East, the West is in danger of focusing on the wrong issues, and countries.
"...While President Obama seems to have made an ancient warcraft fantasy come true in Libya – “Oh snap! If only both sides could lose!” – several indicators are showing that Obama’s posse of ivory tower academics (with all the attendant lack of real world expertise) are getting carjacked by reality.

The drone serves as a primary target for the F-15 pilots who are participating in Exercise Combat Archer during the Weapons System Evaluation Program at Tyndall Air Force Base, Fla. The exercise allows pilots and maintainers valuable training in the employment of live air-to-air munitions and tests the capabilities of the weapon system. (U.S. Air Force photo/Master Sgt.

Life after death.........
A couple made a deal that whoever died first would come back and tell the other about the afterlife.
The husband died first and made contact.
“Gladys?”
“Is that you Fred?”
“Yes, I’ve come back to tell you what it’s like. I have sex, then breakfast, and then of to the golf course, then more sex. I sunbath, then have sex again. Lunch, then romp round the golf course, then sex all afternoon, then supper, and more sex.
“Oh Fred, you must be in heaven.”
“No, I’m a bloody rabbit in Norfolk ”
