04-15-06 - Gaza on brink of implosion as aid cut-off starts to bite Israel's policy was summed up by Dov Weisglass, an adviser to Ehud Olmert, the Israeli Prime Minister, earlier this year. 'The idea is to put the Palestinians on a diet, but not to make them die of hunger,' he said. The hunger pangs are supposed to encourage the Palestinians to force Hamas to change its attitude towards Israel or force Hamas out of government.

04-15-06 - Israel: The Dead Roach in America's Salad The U.S. hypocritically opposes a nuclear-free Middle East because Israel has nuclear weapons. We hypocritically claim the Iranians are in violation of international law when, in fact, it is Israel that refuses to sign the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and refuses international inspections. Given our craven obedience to Israel, we have exactly zero credibility in the Arab and Muslim world.

Israel has to withdraw from the Shebaa Farms and has to stop violating our airspace and water," the prime minister said. The Bush administration couldn't care less about Lebanon, as will be demonstrated by the difference in their action with regard to this case, and with their action with regard to the assasination of Hariri. The main drive of the neocons is to disarm the Palestinians (in Lebanon) and Hezbollah, and to remove the Syrians from Lebanon - with the clear goal of making Israel more secure.
