In spite of assurances by the European Union on Monday, the London-based pan-Arabic newspaper Al-Hayat reports that Europe intends to reject Palestinian Authority Chairman Mahmoud Abbas' request to recognize the PA as a state.

The State of Palestine cannot be recognized as a viable legal entity because it is dead. It died shortly after its birth.

Instead of relishing the life it was given in 1947, Palestine immediately attacked its neighbor, Israel. In the war that followed, Palestine was completely destroyed.

So Palestine is dead. “And it’s not only merely dead. It’s really most sincerely dead.”

“The State of Palestine cannot be recognized as a viable legal entity because it is dead. It died shortly after its birth.”

As far as I know ther never was any kind of Palestinian state. Am I misinformed?

Uh, sorry Mr. Abbas, we kinda need the money from the U.S. to keep the lights on around here

...and in case you had not noticed, the U.S. is not taking kindly to all the rockets you are launching into Israel.

Now just a cotton pickin’ minit here. Let’s be fair. Hamas launched those rockets, and only started launching them after chasing us out of Ghaza. When we have our own country on the West Bank for them to chase us out of, they’ll be the ones firing the rockets from there, too; at Israel’s capital, at Ben Gurion International, and at all the illegal Zionist settlements. And all we need is a little recognition to get this started.
