Your tax dollars at work: 'Palestinian Authority' giving grants to released murderers

The 'Palestinians' are doing more than honoring the child murderers that Israel released to bring them to the conference table. They're also giving them 'grants' to honor them for their 'sacrifices.'

A statement issued by the government following its weekly meeting in
Ramallah said that the "grants" were being presented to the prisoners in
honor of their "sacrifices and in order to guarantee

'Palestinians' campaigning to free Baby Adele's attackers

I trust that many of you - if not most - still remember Baby Adele, the three-year old who was nearly killed when her mother's car was stoned. In London on Friday, there was a demonstration (pictured above) demanding freedom for the terrorists who attacked Baby Adele's mother's car (Hat Tip: I Acknowledge Anti-Semitism Poses as Palestinian "Human Rights" Activism).

Security forces break up terror cell that planned to attack Jerusalem's busy outdoor mall

Israel's security forces have broken up a Hamas terror cell that planned to attack Israel's generally crowded Mamilla mall outside Jerusalem's Old City (Hat Tip: Shy Guy).

the upcoming Jewish festive period of Rosh Hashana (New Year), Yom
Kippur and

One of three killed in Kalandia at 7:00 am Monday was UNRWA employee

It is being claimed that one of the three 'Palestinians' who was killed in Kalandia on Monday was an UNRWA employee.

Chris Gunness said that the employee, who he did not identify by
name, was shot dead by Israeli forces and killed instantly in an
operation in Qalandia refugee camp at about 7 a.m.

He cited reports that the 34-year-old father of four was on his way to work and not involved

The Costanza doctrine

I left the US 22 years ago, and I really no longer watch television at all, so this was enlightening to me. How many of you are familiar with the Costanza doctrine from the popular television hit Seinfeld?

Let's go to the videotape (Hat Tip: Shy Guy).



So what does the Costanza doctrine have to do with Israel and the Middle East? Adam Turner suggests that the Obama administration should adopt

'We won't be able to live with these people if we just butcher them'

Fox News contributor Deroy Murdock talks about why Israel exercises great restraint in its dealings with the 'Palestinians.'

Before the IDF hit Hamas-operated targets, it scrutinized them to protect the safety of non-combatants.


“Our goal,” Captain O says, is to assure that “no innocent civilians are hurt.”


This objective
is complicated severely by the fact that Hamas routinely locates

'Palestinians': US letter guaranteed our preconditions, Europeans published guidelines to entice us to talks

'Palestinian' chief negotiator bottle washer Saeb Erekat claims that the 'Palestinians' would not have returned to the 'negotiating' table without a letter of assurances from the United States that all of their preconditions would be met.

In a lengthy interview with Nazareth-based A-Shams radio, Erekat said
that the US had assured Palestinians in writing that talks would

10 years ago tonight

10 years ago tonight on the Jewish calendar, a 'Palestinian' suicide bomber walked into Cafe Hillel in Jerusalem, murdering seven people, including Dr. David Appelbaum and his daughter Nava HY"D (May God Avenge her blood). Nava was to have been married the next night (Hat Tip: Gershon D).

Slightly less than two years ago, Palestinian Authority terrorist Ibrahim Muhammad Yunus Dar Musa, who

Poll: 80% of Israeli Jews say there won't be a peace accord

The latest 'peace talks' aren't fooling a whole lot of people in Israel. A survey by Israel Hayom finds that some 80% of Israeli Jews don't believe there's going to be a peace accord with the 'Palestinians.'

The American-brokered negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians
that began in Jerusalem last week will not lead to a final-status
agreement that will end the conflict, 79.7

Pollard blasts Israeli government over terrorist release

Jonathan Pollard, who has been imprisoned in the United States for the last 28 years for spying for Israel, has spoken out for the first time since his imprisonment. In a JPost op-ed, he blasts the Israeli government for releasing terrorists.

Over the last six decades,
Israel’s leaders and its judiciary have practiced the art of political
expedience to such a degree that Israel is now the

And another gesture: Israel to hand over all terrorists buried in Israel

In yet another 'gesture' with no quid pro quo, Israel is to hand over the bodies of all of the 'Palestinian' terrorists who have been buried in Israel.

As part of the good will gestures to Palestinians in light of the resumption of peace talks,
Israel
has agreed to hand over to Palestinians the bodies of terrorists who were buried in Israel, Ynet learned Wednesday.

Swedes and Norwegians seething over comparison between 'Palestinian' terrorists and Anders Breivik

The Israeli ambassador to Sweden, Isaac Bachman, managed to touch off a storm by comparing the release of 'Palestinian' terrorists to an imaginary release of Norwegian mass murderer Anders Behring Breivik.

"The horrors that [the Palestinian prisoners] did, to put it in a
Scandinavian understanding, it's like what happened in Norway with
Breivik," he told SR.

Abu Mazen's welcome home

On Tuesday night, Abu Mazen stayed up all night partying with murderers.

Hamas bans terrorist release celebrations

Hamas has banned in Gaza any celebration of Tuesday night's terrorist release, presumably not wanting to recognize the 'achievement' of  'moderate' 'Palestinian' President Mahmoud Abbas Abu Mazen. This is from the first link.

Though the majority of the 26 Palestinian prisoners
released on Tuesday night were transferred to Gaza Strip, the biggest
celebrations were expected in Ramallah.

'Palestinians' disappointed by murderer release

The 'Palestinians' are disappointed that the terrorists being released on Tuesday night do not include any 'Israeli Arabs' or Jerusalem residents, and do include terrorists who were due to be released in a year or two anyway.

Kadoura Fares, director of the Palestinian Prisoners’ Club, said the
Palestinian Authority leadership would discuss the “flaw created by
Israel’s selection of the first

Israel releasing 26 murderers tonight

Right about now, the Israel Prisons Service is starting the process of releasing 26 murderers as a gesture to the 'Palestinian Authority' for joining 'peace talks.' Unlike past releases, this time the IPS is doing all they can (which isn't much) to ensure that the release does not become an occasion for mass outcries of joy from the 'Palestinians.'

The Israel Prison Service was slated to

Remembering Lior Tubul and Ronen Karamani

In an earlier post, I mentioned Lior Tubul and Ronen Karamani, who were kidnapped on their way to visit their girlfriends just north of Jerusalem and murdered in cold blood. Their murderers are among the 104 'Palestinian' terrorists to be released, although they are not among those being released tomorrow.

State Department criticizes Israeli housing approval

At the State Department on Monday, spokeswoman Marie Harf criticized Israel's approval of 1,187 new Jewish housing units in 'east' Jerusalem and environs as 'illegitimate,' but she was careful not to call them 'illegal.'

“These announcements do come at a particularly sensitive time, and we
have made our serious concerns about this recent announcement known to
the government of Israel,” Harf
