Monday post-Irene briefs

Yet another Palestinian terror attack: Yeah, the Palestinians want peace. But they spell it “piece,” and they mean “pieces of Israelis.” This bastard deliberately tried to murder children. What stopped him from killing? The border police checkpoint set up for the end of Ramadan. Wonderful people. They celebrate the end of their holiest time with a murder spree. Say, Larry Derfner, still think that his attacks are justified because Israel is oppressing the Palestinians?

Amending the peace treaty that Egypt wants to ignore: Israel is allowing 1500 Egyptian troops into the Sinai in an attempt to stop the lawlessness since Mubarak’s regime ended. Their stated purpose is to stop the terror attacks on Israel. We shall see if that’s what happens.

The AP continues its objectivity streak: Well, mostly. This last paragraph is a laff-riot, what with its mention of Palestinian security forces trying to stop Palestinian terrorists.

Such attacks inside Israel, once common, have fallen off in recent years as Israeli and Palestinian forces have restored security in the adjacent Palestinian territory of the West Bank. But some violence has continued, with one Israeli killed in a similar attack with a vehicle in Tel Aviv in May.

By the way, Syria is still murdering civilians by the dozen: Not that the world is concerned overmuch. Oh, there is the head-shaking and the threat of UN condemnation, but the reason Assad keeps doing it is because he isn’t seeing any NATO planes heading his way. Mind you, I’m not recommending that we get into yet another Middle East war. But the hypocrisy of the world when it comes to the deaths of Arabs by Arabs, compared to the death of Arabs by Israelis, is stunning. Utterly unbelievable, really.
