WASHINGTON -- The United States is working on a Middle East peace proposal that would include creating an independent Palestinian state, senior administration officials said Wednesday.

Such a plan would go a step further than the previous U.S. position, which was merely to endorse the idea of statehood.

An independent Palestinian state should be set up, but delayed by one week for each innocent person murdered by Islamist terrorists. Retroactive to 9/10, say.

What are they going to do, when the State of Palestine conducts terror attacks on Israel and maybe Jordan. Do we take their State away?

And moved forward by one week for each innocent Palestinian murdered by Israeli terrorists...retroactive to the Balfour Declaration.

Officials say they hope the U.S. proposal, which would offer guidelines for dealing with some of the most nagging problems that divide Israelis and Palestinians, would be unveiled by July.

June 27th to July 18th, three weeks of mourning.

Looks like the White House is still a Whore House, this time a whoring after strange gods.

Many G-d fearing men fought for freedom and America in WWII and won.  Now most have died.  America has now fallen away and missed the message of the towers.  Joshua won many battles and after he and those of his generation died (Judges 2:6 ff.), the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord and served other gods which are no gods, and provoked the Lord to anger and judgment fell on Joshua's descendants.

Jg 2:11 And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the LORD, and served Baalim:
12 And they forsook the LORD God of their fathers, which brought them out of the land of Egypt, and followed other gods, of the gods of the people that were round about them, and bowed themselves unto them, and provoked the LORD to anger.
13 And they forsook the LORD, and served Baal and Ashtaroth.

Rewarding terrorists. Don't worry, they mean us no harm.

Give Arafat credit, he reads the American political climate well.

Yes.

And that's the end of it. From then, kill, jail, deport terrorists until the violence ends.

I applaud this idea. Of course, since there has never, ever been an independent state called "Palestine", there can not be any people called "Palestinians". Now, Chief Terrorist and Mass Murderer Arafat has created the myth of a "Palestinian people" as part of his propaganda campaign against Israel and we have evidence that you subscribe to this Arab propaganda wholeheartedly. However, despite your deeply held beliefs, it is still propaganda.

Ben boy, its great to hear from you again! Apparently my President (that would by George Bush) also subscribes to this myth of Palestine. Unfortunately, you seem to believe that my President has fallen victim to "Arab propaganda". I realize that your leader (Mr. Sharoniac a/k/a Israel's #1 war criminal) does not believe in a Palestinian state and thinks that the Palestinians should be "transferred". I'll go with my leader's beliefs, you go with yours.

There can not have been any event known as The Holocaust either.

I have no doubt that, in your world, the Holocaust never occurred. However, in the real world, it did. The so-called "Palestinians" are another story. They are no different from other Arabs. They do not have a separate language, culture, faith, or even cuisine. Therefore, what makes them a separate people?

LOL, I nominate you to head the project... You're certainly a lot smarter and creative.

Always nice to expose your ignorance.

The President has to play politics. It is unfortunate that he lacks the bravery to tell the truth, but it is understandable.

I realize that your leader (Mr. Sharoniac a/k/a Israel's #1 war criminal) does not believe in a Palestinian state and thinks that the Palestinians should be "transferred".

Ah, the mature name calling again. No matter, let's deal with the lack of facts in your statement. Sharon does believe in a "Palestinian State" and has said so. Moreover, he does not advocate transfer. And, as I have pointed out previously, neither do I. So, we see you are wrong again. Nothing new there.

I'll go with my leader's beliefs, you go with yours.

Excellent. My leader is G-D, and I do go along with Him. You, of course, do not.

Ben, Ben, Ben c'mon and think before you post. You see, the U.N, the European Union, the Bush White House, the Chinese, etc. believe in a Palestinian state. It's only you, Sharoniac, the New Kach party and a few other fanatics that believe in killing off or "transferring" the Palestinians who have already been made refugees once. Why don't you join in and give these folks a break. After all, a secure and independent Palestine would be good for Isreal. The alternative is only more bloodshead on both sides.

I get it now, President Bush and I are not only morons, but we lack courage for failing to support the right wing of Israeli politics. Lord knows we need more great Americans like you, Ben.
