Four Years Later
November 11th, 2008
It has now been four years since Yasser Arafat was confirmed dead by the PLO (may he rot in hell forever). On the same day Mahmoud Abbas was elected chairmen. This day is implanted in my mind forever. It brought such great hope, that finally Israel would have a man they could really deal with.
This has turned out to not be the case unfortunately. It is a great disappointment to all who care about our stalwart ally. We must hold the Democrats feet to the fire, and demand that they continue to support the fledgling democracy. If we don’t no one will.
The Israelis need our support. Today I saw that Olmert is wavering on Jerusalem. It is a sad state of affairs for them, to have such leadership in this dangerous time. Hopefully soon a new and better government can be created.
