The Anshluss of Jerusalem
(plus another item of current interest)

The main details of the "Clinton Proposal" for a permanent Middle East peace, which will be referred to in the future by historians as "Clinton’s Last Stain", are now coming out, although parts are still being kept secret.

Essentially, Israel will reward the PLO for its atrocities, terror, violence, burning of synagogues, lynching, and murder of children by capitulating. Israel will "return" virtually all of the "territories", including the Old City of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, to PLO fascist rule. (Note the interesting use of the term "return" in the media, implying these were ever once under Palestinian Arab rule.) Israel will grant the PLO swaths of pre-1967 Israel. Israel will accept around 150,000 Palestinian "refugees" into its territory as a Fifth Column, forgetting that absorbing refugees was supposed to be the entire raison d’etre for giving the PLO autonomy territories to begin with. The PLO will get the Jordan Valley and so will be able to import massive quantities of heavy arms as well as admit divisions of Iraqi and Iranian "volunteers". East Jerusalem will be Judenrein. The PLO will get the Latrun area, allowing it to cut off and starve West Jerusalem like in 1948. Israel will acknowledge that the Palestinians have the "right to return", but the details of the exercise of this "right" will be left to the future when Clinton is no longer around to be bothered by it.

The only hope left being that - like Asad and Pharaoh - God will harden the heart of the ugly little mini-fuhrer and Israel will be saved from itself and from its own Hellenist leaders by his refusing to accept even this capitulation.

Meanwhile, the Arabs are already demonstrating that they regard the Western Wall as theirs, handed to them by Clinton and NeBARAKnezzar. You all recall how the world’s media decided that the High Holiday pogroms were all the fault of Arik Sharon, because he paid a "provocative" visit to the Temple Mount (the place where the PLO insists no Jewish religious institutions ever stood and that the only religious significance of the Western Wall is that Mohammed tied up his donkey there). At the time we pointed out that Sharon visiting the Temple Mount was almost as provocative as would be a visit by a member of the Italian Parliament to the Vatican. In any case, this visit allowed the world’s Jew-bashing media to blame the next three months of atrocities and warfare on the this visit.

Now in an even WORSE act of provocation, Jerusalem Mayor Ehud Olmert has decided to move his own mayoral offices close to the Western Wall. The Arabs and their Hellenist jewish leftist amen chorus are having conniptions. This is WORSE than Sharon’s own act of war and terror. Clearly Olmert does not want peace if he thinks he can just go and move his office near the Western Wall without PLO permission. He threatens to defile the place where Mohammed tied up his donkey! One of the PLO’s Gauleiters, Saib Arikat (moderate darling of the BBC and CNN), warns (Haaretz Dec 28) that Olmert’s act of aggression will "cause bloodshed". Arikat called on Barak to prevent Olmert from provoking the peace-seeking Arabs by this act of war, and Barak is considering the matter. You see, under Clinton’s Last Stain and under the doctrine of Neo-Hellenism of Israel’s political leaders, Jews going to or being near the Western Wall is provocation to violence and offensive to Arab delicate hypersensitivities. Essentially like Jews breathing air any place else in Occupied Palestine (which includes Tel Aviv and Haifa).

Oh Junior Asad is also pressuring the PLO to reject Clinton’s Last Stain, and I think we should all send him a Yasher Koach electronically now that he has allowed some Syrian policemen to have internet service. If Arafat says nyet, Barak can always offer the Temple Mount to that Massachusetts high-tech fella upset about paying taxes.


Those of you who make a practice of donating money to the Hebrew University will be happy to hear that the University has just decided to remove those computer chips from its campus computers that were preventing students from accessing porno web sites. You see, the university was under pressure because the same chips prevent its gay students from accessing gay porno and other gay sites, and this was a violation of human rights. So now (Haaretz Dec 28), the University has decided to appease the "Other Ten Percent", as the militant gay students call themselves, and remove the offending chips. SO your donation money can once again be used to support gay/porno web surfing at the Hebrew University.

You may find it comforting though to learn that under Clinton’s Last Stain, the new battle lines in Jerusalem will run right next to the soon-to-be-shell-pocked buildings of the Hebrew University’s Mount Scopus campus.
