Well, At Least They Are Consistent...

I read an article today about the new "leader" of the "palestinian" Authority. Sounds like he is cut from the same cloth as Arafat. Isn't that lovely? Oh well, at least we won't be left thinking that there is any change in the philosophy of the PA. According to the article:

The new leader of the ruling Fatah movement said the Palestinians want to replace Israel with a state of their own.

Fatah chief Farouk Khaddoumi said the Palestinian strategy toward Israel was two-fold. In the first stage, he said, the Palestinians would accept a Palestinian state alongside Israel. In the second stage, the Palestinians would seek to eliminate the Jewish state.

Nothing new there. That has been the "palestinian" plan all along.

Khaddoumi, who regards himself as Palestinian foreign minister, said he was confident that Israel would be eliminated. He said he always opposed Israel's existence and cited the Arab numerical superiority over the Jewish state.

"[There are] 300 million Arabs, while Israel has only the sea behind it," Khaddoumi said.

Khaddoumi said his platform was endorsed by the PLO in 1974. He said the strategy called for a phased plan that would establish authority over any territory obtained from Israel, concluding with an Arab war to destroy the Jewish state.

I notice a few glaring problems with Doo Dah's information: 1) Israel is backed by the United States. Our military has shown that in a conventional battle Arab soldiers make good cannon fodder. 2) Israel has shown that they really don't need our help. On at least two occasions, ALL of the Arab countries have attempted to drive Israel into the sea. On both occasions Arab countries got their butts wiped AND lost territory. Israel received no US help in either of the two events that I am thinking about. In fact, in the first attack (back in 1948) Israel didn't even have a trained army and had no weapons! And they STILL kicked the Arabs' collective butt. 3) God still likes Israel and backs her up. The re-establishment of Israel is right out of the pages of Isaiah. I also remember reading a prophecy in the Bible that says that Israel will pretty much own 90% of what is called the Middle East at some point. Since that has never happened before (even under King David or King Solomon) I figure that is a prophecy that is yet to be fulfilled. Based on what I have seen of other biblical prophecy it is only a matter of time....

I pity this poor, deluded man. One day he will awaken from his "martyrdom" to discover that he was dead wrong in all of his suppositions and beliefs. It will be a very bad day for him.
