Their Supreme Arrogance

This morning, I switched between ABC and its interview of the Iranian madman and NBC with King Abdullah, the scheming Jordanian. Both are enemies of the Jewish state, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad more overtly, seeking total annihilation of the Jewish state and considering it his divinely commanded mission. The soft-spoken Jordanian though is no friend of the Jews. He slyly blames the entire crisis of the Middle East on them and now has Netanyahu as the bugbear with much of the rest of the Jew-baiting world agreeing that the new Prime Minister is the obstacle preventing just and lasting peace. This is utter sophistry as there is no Palestinian partner to make peace with, as the PA wants to extinguish the Zionist enterprise with a thousand cuts while Hamas, the voice of the vast majority of Palestinians, wants Israel obliterated with Jewish presence in the Holy Land extinguished outright. The Jews have no Palestinian arbiter who can deliver anything but more bloodshed and unending conflict. The gross conceit of Europeans who marshalled the Holocaust, orchestrating the systematic murder of their Jews and permitting the Shoah, and of the brash, insouciant American president to think they still have the power to dictate the fate of the Jewish state and Jewish people must be disabused forthwith-Jews do not live by sufferance anymore and never will again, never again.
