It needs to be returned too, because, according to our President (that's "our" President Bush):

"I believe the decision that Prime Minister Sharon has made and is going to follow through on will be good for Israel," Bush said, interviewed at his ranch in Crawford, Texas."

Asked why he thought Israel's "disengagement" from the occupied land would help Israeli security, Bush replied:

"First of all the previous system wasn't working. There was an intifada (Palestinian uprising), there was death, there was killing. And if you notice, there's been a calm in attacks."

"I think this will create an opportunity for democracy to emerge and democracies are peaceful."

"I think in the long run two states living side by side in peace is the ultimate solution for Israel's security," he said.

If Jenna and Barbara Bush ever want to take control of Dad's assets, at the competency hearing they should cite the above quote.

In other words, he's advocating withdrawal to halt terror attacks. How is this not appeasement, and not a double standard considering our policy in Iraq?

I take a bugle with me whenever I go to the mall, and if you notice, there have been no gorilla attacks.

In case you haven't noticed, the "road map" also requires the terror apparatus to be "disengaged"

Do you see that happening?
