US Finally Grows the Tiniest Shred of a Backbone
In regards to Israel, the US always reminds me of that old Loony Toons dog that follows the bigger dog, Spike around asking "Whadda ya wanna do today, Spike? Huh, Spike? You wanna chase some cats? Huh, Spike?"
However, today US officials finally took offense to some of the insanity coming from Israel and called them on it. They want Israel to explain the comments of Sharons' chief of staff, Dov Weisglass, who recently said, ""The significance of our disengagement plan is the freezing of the peace process. It supplies the formaldehyde necessary so there is no political process with Palestinians."
In other words, the mission of the plan is to eliminate any possibility of a Palestinian state, one of the stated goals of the US "roadmap to peace.'
Update: Predictably enough, just when Sharon needs a distraction, 'al Queda' sets off a car bomb on the Israel/Egypt border. It's funny how no actual 'al Queda' agents have been found, or when they are found, they turn out to actually be Mossad, or FBI, or CIA. Funny might not be the right word actually.
