Here's to another several thousand years of fighting over that little scratch of arrid scrub land. As each side is fairly much pledged to squabbling over it until the last opposing realtor is dead, then it's safe to assume that mankind still exists as long as there remains a challenge of ownership. QED. Any certain, sure and final perfected property deed would mean that there's only one person left to enjoy it. And that's gonna really suck for news media ratings. So let us count our hidden blessings over that little wretched sandbox, because with two sabres rattling, we can at least be assured that we're not all dead, yet. <g!> Happy New Year!

The Truth Comes Out israelnationalnews.com Israel needs more land... "A Palestinian state would be a deadly threat to Israel. This is not an empty political slogan, but a well-founded strategic truth. Accordingly, any sign of support for - or even reluctant resignation to - the eventual establishment of such a state is inconsistent with the preservation of Israel´s vital national interests. Any ambivalence on this issue - any policy other than resolute rejection of the very notion of an Arab state on the fringes of the greater Tel Aviv area, having total topographical control over the urban sprawl in the coastal plain, and full hydrological control over a third of the country´s water resources - is a grave strategic error." How good or bad, corrupt or just the Arab regimes are elsewhere is no justification to colonize the land with people from another continent who are bent on destroying the local economy and subjecting the locals. You can go all around the world to justify it, but that does not address the question. len
