The Palestinian Authority negotiators made a pitch for a Got Talent show and quit in protest over Israel’s plan to build homes for Jews. Abbas played his role to the hilt and refused the resignations.
The Gaza front heats up again. The IDF killed two terrorists in a combined land-aerial counter-terrorist maneuver. Hamas targeted soldiers with mortar shells. Heavy fighting continues.
The only good news about media ignorance is that the bigger lies newspapers create, the brighter will be the light of truth what the lies eventually come apart.
Israel frees terrorists as a building permit for homes for Jews. Abbas should be happy because he thinks new homes will be turned over to the PA. But he has to cry. It’s part of the script.
What do these events have in common? 1: Settlers burned Arab trees in Gush Etzion; 2: The IDF assaulted an Arab driver near Hevron; 3: IDF bulldozed Arab land near Shechem. Answer: Media reported them, and they are lies.
The government finally has told the truth. The Supreme Court, before rejecting an appeal to stop the release of terrorists, asked if it could be delayed. The government said, “No, we promised Obama.”

The Israel Air Force (IAF) attacked two rocket launch pads in northern Gaza on Monday morning, following the launches at Ashkelon this morning. The IAF said it hit the underground sites, Gazan sources said one person was injured in the attack. All IAF aircraft returned home safely.
As Israel is set to release even more terrorists, Gaza terrorists launched multiple rockets at Israel.
The Jewish Home took a stand against freeing more terrorists. It knew it would lose. The Likud won the battle but may have lost the next war – the one that is fought at the election polls.
The news is not that Gaza terrorists shelled Israel with mortars. The news is the IDF and the government did not comment. Perhaps the IDF will “retaliate” by bombing one tunnel but not enough to halt "peace talks."
A 16 year old Palestinian Authority Arab approached an IDF position in Hebron and attempted to stab one of the soldiers with a screwdriver. The soldiers subdued the terrorist, without injuries.

It seems the PA delayed the report on charges that Israel poisoned Arafat because there is no proof; it settles for the "possibility” he was poisoned. Chemists tell The Jewish Press: Nonsense.
Thirteen Jews were arrested for being on the Temple Mount for praying.

Abbas is a master schnoorer. The US forked over another $!48 million to Ramallah, which is peanuts to the $2.7 billion the EU says it wasted. Abbas has no money to pay workers – again – and blames Israel.
The Gaza terror tunnel uncovered last week was built using an estimated 500 tons of concrete and cement, the equivalent of 27 truckloads.

The Arabs tried to insert an “emergency motion” into the agenda that called for all parliaments […]
Another Big Lie is exposed. Rav Ovadia favored giving up land for peace in 1993. But when the PA blew up the Oslo Accords 10 years later, the rabbi ruled, “Oslo is null and void. This is not the peace I meant.”
Overnight Wednesday, a rocket launched from Gaza landed in the Kissufim area. No injuries were reported in the attack. The rocket alert system worked, and the siren went off as soon as the launch was detected.
Abbas is doing a great job to make the PA non-existent. He claims cooperation with the IDF is great but the IDF must stop entering Arab cities to arrests terrorists. Even Livni is not that naïve to agree.
The Hamas terrorist organization has scolded Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas for sending condolences to the family of Rabbi Ovadia Yosef. Abbas sent his message of sorrow via 12 visiting Knesset Members who met with him in Ramallah. Abbas told them he has previously met with members of the revered rabbi’s family. One of Rabbi […]

Be careful what you wish for. Netanyahu again turns Abbas’ refusal to see Israel as a Jewish state a "red line.” If Abbas “doesn’t miss an opportunity to miss an opportunity,” fine. But what if Abbas calls his bluff?

The Palestinian Authority puts a new meaning into the term “red line.” Fatah, headed by PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas, states on Facebook,"Blood of Martyrs (Shahids) that draws the borders of the homeland."
How can the government stop building in Judea and Samaria without saying so? Simple. Just stop “settlements” from buying land from Palestinian Authority Arabs. The High Court will decide who is right.
“Truth or Consequences” was an old TV show. An entertainer performed a stupid stunt if he could not answer an equally stupid trivia question. Now Netanyahu and Obama are playing, but it is not a game.

Obama was not joking at the UN. He actually said, “The world is a more stable place today than it was five years ago.” Does he watch TV? Does he know that Islamic terrorists killed 400 people in five days?
Jerusalem police once again have prohibited Jews from visiting the Temple Mount because of security officials' unintended admission that they cannot or do not want to deal with violent Arabs.

When we wrote two months ago here that Obama’s reincarnated “peace process” was doomed from the start, we stated the ugly truth: Terrorists would drive in the first nail. Yet, the PA blames Israel.
Terrorists, like Mafia kingpins, are allies until one of them thinks he can rule the world. When they trip up over their own arrogance, they run back into each other’s self-destructive clutches.
