Throwing Rice at Terrorists — as if They Were Brides — Will Not Cure the Malady Spread by Arabs

In case the news did not leak, like sticky syrup, onto your fluffy pancakes this morning, the Palestinian President of the West Bank has agreed to resume “piece” talks with Israel, the land he and his minions have vowed to destroy.

Mahmoud Abbas, a prominent Arab terrorist best known as a Holocaust denier before the piece-loving Palestinians elected him a couple of winters ago, did not make the announcement.

The un-stunning news came from Condoleeza Rice, who would be regarded as the silliest, most foolish Secretary of State of the past 60 years had she not been preceded by Madeline (The Boob) Albright.


The Embodiment of Minute Rice

Ms. Rice, who looks better than she thinks, is a typically unreformed academic who is the Helen Keller of international diplomacy, stone deaf. She is as hopelessly lost and overmatched among Middle Eastern Arab thugs as a small-town 53-year-old schoolgirl on her first overnight trip.

Resembling one of the airheads on South Park, Ms. Rice has spent all three years in office amorphously floating around the Middle East , I think, secretly scouting for a husband.

Ever since Israel officially was born in May of 1948, a rotation of dim bulbs in Washington has announced three or four times each year that the hot Arab terrorist leader of the moment has reluctantly agreed to piece talks with Israel.

Of course the talks never have succeeded because the Arab terrorists in the fashionable Arab throne of the moment want to destroy Israel. In Arabic, they tell their countrymen they will reclaim the land where they never lived before. In English, they merely say “no” to every offer.

I will bet that makes sense to your logical mind, too.


Saluting Separatists

When it comes to Jews, Arabs are strictly segregationists, which, you would think, would offend the sensibilities of those spacious-minded, wildly tolerant American liberals.

But, being left-wingers, they have learned to live comfortably as accommodationists. Arab terrorists in the Middle East do not allow Jews into their countries, much less their towns. Can you imagine life in Culver City if only Lutherans were allowed to live on Braddock Drive? Only Presbyterians on Overland?

But liberal journalists can’t write that because they fear Arab terrorists will hurt them.


Hope Is Eternal, but Success Is Not

Dickie Boudreaux is the new Jerusalem bureau chief of the Los Angeles Times for the next couple of years.

Every time there is a change in bureau chiefs, I keep hoping, hollowly, that the new guy will get it, will understand that facing off the Arab terrorists — some are less lethal than others; they never kill before breakfast — against Israel is like putting the LAPD and gang leaders at the same table. They are not equals, any more than adults and children are.


Lines of Demarcation Are Unmistakable

You never would know it from reading most newspapers or watching most television.

But there are genuine bad guys and genuine good guys in this scenario. To repeat, they are not equals.

This is not like choosing the lesser of two evils. It is choosing between right and wrong, between moral and immoral. And no, Dickie Boudreaux does not get it.

Every Arab regime in the Middle East is terrorist tainted. Either it is the chief oppressor in its land or it is intimidated itself by a bigger dog Arab terrorist group.

Abbas the terrorist is sworn to the annihilation of Jews and of Israel. He is not a former Boy Scout gone vaguely bad. He is a criminal.


Reporters Intimidated into Submission

You will not read that assessment in most newspapers because liberals are scared to death of Arab terrorists. They believe in the threat of terrorism as deeply as you do and I do. But they cannot openly acknowledge it because that would betray their We Is All Equal and We Is All Equally Good creed.

This is why every liberal journalist in America — not one exception — refers to Arab terrorists as “militants” because it sounds cuddly and fuzzy warm. The New York Times started this astounding corruption of the language in the early ‘90s, and every newspaper in America fell meekly in line behind the Times — in more than one way.

You may also have noticed that liberal boob journalists seem to curtsy when it becomes to identifying the Arab terrorists of Hamas, Hezbollah and other groups by their true label. The journalists dip their knees, swing their tongues around their lips, grow red in their flushed faces and write, “America, Israel and the European Union regard Hamas as a terrorist group.” So why don’t you write that, pal? Because liberal journalists fear they or their employer will be harmed, in retaliation, by Arab terrorists.



Aw, Boys, Let’s Have a Group Hug



At 3:45 this morning, I was listening to blatantly dishonest National Public Radio’s latest equivalency report from the filthy Gaza Strip. Many Palestinians are suffering, said the woman reporter, Linda Gradstein, ostensibly an Orthodox Jew, and Israelis, well, they are suffering a little, too.

Newspaper reports on Middle Eastern piece talks typically resemble two 5-year-old girls throwing pillows at each other. Arab terrorists scare them into surrender.


No-Fault Insurance? No

Israel bombed Gaza, one of the dirtiest patches of land on earth, last week because Arab terrorists — who do not give a rip about protecting “their” people — have been firing Qassam rockets over the border into Israel for years, intending to kill, or at least frighten, Jews. They have succeeded.

But liberal reporters always manage to find sad-sack Arab families who say they are innocent victims of Israel retaliation. They only pray to Allah and love their families and had nothing to do with terrorism. Sorry, my naive pal.

Finding yourself on the business end of Israeli ammunition is the price you deservedly pay when you allow, or elect, terrorists to lead your land. That is your fault, pal, not mine.
