FrontPageMagazine.com Tuesday, April 28, 2009

In an insightful, idol-smashing article in the currently Atlantic Monthly, Robert Kaplan proposes that the reason the “two-state solution” keeps being frustrated is that the Palestinians don’t actually want the state that’s being offered them. But Kaplan also castigates Israeli leaders who are closer to that level of insight and calls for harsh U.S. pressure on them...read more

Democrats in Congress are joining Republicans in calling for tough new sanctions on Iran and warning the Obama administration that its policy of engagement shouldn’t last too long before turning to harsher steps aimed at halting Tehran’s nuclear program...More Dems call for tough Iran sanctions

More headlines, and news from Joel Rosenberg

The international Religious Left has very little interest in human rights or religious liberty in the world, outside territories occupied by or supposedly victimized by Israel. Never critical of radical Islam or Arab regimes, groups like the World Council of Churches (WCC) have an obsessive interest in the plight of Palestinians, whose plight would otherwise bore the WCC, if Israel, and by extension, the U.S., could not be blamed. Concern about Palestinian Christians?

Obama’s Two-State Delusion

Straight from the clueless department...

By P. David Hornik

“In the Middle East,” President Obama told the Turkish parliament on Monday, “we share the goal of a lasting peace between Israel and its neighbors. Let me be clear: the United States strongly supports the goal of two states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security.”

He added: “That is a goal shared by Palestinians (Hamas too?), Israelis, and people of good will around the world. That is a goal that the parties agreed to in the road map and at Annapolis. And that is a goal that I will actively pursue as president.”

His words give rise to a few responses...read more
