Not a mistake!
Israel planning new housing in East Jerusalem
by Mark Lavie, Associated Press | December 5, 2007
JERUSALEM - Israel announced plans yesterday to build more than 300 homes in a disputed East Jerusalem neighborhood, drawing quick Palestinian condemnation that the move will undermine revived peace talks.
The new housing would expand Har Homa, a Jewish neighborhood in an area Palestinians claim as capital of a future state. Palestinian officials appealed to Washington to block the project, but Israel says a pledge to halt settlement activity does not apply anywhere in the holy city.
No, nothing applies to Israel!
Israel doesn't have to respect agreements because of Kol Nidre!
"When, on the Day of Atonement, you walk into a synagogue, the very first prayer that you recite, you stand -- and it's the only prayer for which you stand -- and you repeat three times a short prayer. The Kol Nidre. In that prayer, you enter into an agreement with God Almighty that any oath, vow, or pledge that you may make during the next twelve months -- any oath, vow or pledge that you may take during the next twelve months shall be null and void.
The oath shall not be an oath; the vow shall not be a vow; the pledge shall not be a pledge. They shall have no force and effect, and so forth and so on.
And further than that, the Talmud teaches: "Don't forget -- whenever you take an oath, vow, and pledge -- remember the Kol Nidre prayer that you recited on the Day of Atonement, and that exempts you from fulfilling that."
That explains a lot, doesn't it, readers?
And good luck, Palestinians, with the appeal!
That dog won't hunt!
Meanwhile, President Bush will visit the Mideast in early January as he presses the Israelis and Palestinians to restart moribund peace talks, the White House said yesterday.
White House spokesman Gordon Johndroe would not release any details of Bush's itinerary. But an Israeli television station said the president would visit Israel.
What a surprise. Gonna blow Olmert when you get there?
Channel 2 TV reported, meanwhile, that President Bush will visit Israel next month for the first time in his presidency. The report said he would focus on Israel-Palestinian peace talks and Iran's nuclear program. Other Israeli media outlets reported the Bush visit would take place Jan. 9.
What nuclear program?
The announcement that 307 homes would be built at Har Homa came at a time of rising Israeli frustration over almost daily rocket attacks on Israel by Islamic militants in Gaza. Israel pledged to press ahead with its campaign against the Gaza militants, saying that by nightfall yesterday 21 rockets and mortars had been fired on Israel, bringing the 12-month total to more than 2,000.
Whatever! I'm tired of the pro-Israeli bias in the MSM!
Defense Minister Ehud Barak said it is time to "kill those who carry out attacks" against Israelis, but added he was holding off on a large-scale invasion of the Gaza Strip for now. Barak told Army Radio that Israeli troops killed 27 Gaza militants in the past 10 days and would continue to chase down those operating under Hamas rule.
FOR NOW, huh? Can't say you weren't warned, world!
I won't be surprised when the NaZionists go back in.
I just wonder what is taking them so long.
Early yesterday, an Israeli air strike on a Hamas police post in central Gaza killed three militants and wounded a fourth.
Yup, Israel's DAILY AIR STRIKE! That's not an issue, though!
The poor Israelis! Retaliating for rockets that never do anything!
I'm tired of the stinkfuck Zionist press!
Har Homa, where about 4,000 Israelis now live, is just inside the expanded city limits of Jerusalem, drawn after Israel captured East Jerusalem in the 1967 war."
Yeah, it 's o.k. in AmeriKa if Israel steals land and kills people with an oppresive occupation and collective punishment!
DISCREDITED MEDIA!
