Just When You Thought the Nuclear Thing Was About Iran, Now the UN wants to help Syria go Nulcear too.

Unbelievable blindness and stupidity -- unless of course you realize that the UN is really part of the problem and in sympathy with Radical Islamist Terrorists. Enemy No. 1 is Iran and Enemy No. 1's best friend is our Enemy No. 2 -- Syria. So, the UN now wants a program that will help Syria get a nuclear development site (again) in Syria. Even though one had to leveled to the ground recently because Syria was pursuing "developments" that were conducive to nuclear weapons. But hey that was in the past. They're all good people now with good and honorable intentions now.. Or so the UN thinks. Wrong.

Meanwhile Iran is getting all the support it needs towards its goal of eliminating Israel off the face of the earth. Why if they are patient enough they'll be able to attack Israel both from Iran and from Syria with all the nuclear weapons they'll need. All thanks to both the UN and the gutless west.

Here's the story. Read it for yourself and see if I missed something.

Have the Palestinians Hit a Dead End at the UN?

Whether it is the written lines or the spoken ones, it appears that the PA has hit a road block for now on its bid to get statehood at the UN. Their choices are simple: try it again, go for recognition with UN agencies, as they did with UNESCO recently (but of course that cut off a lot of aid from the U.S. and stopped any increases of aid from countries like Canada), or they can get good and mad and turn to more radical segments of Islam for support -- i.e. Iran who is currently busy pursuing nuclear arms.

What is interesting in this short article and video clip is how the various parties at the Security Council are currently voting or not. Also, of interest, is how all this will play out for Mahmoud Abbas, the PA president and his Fatah party.

Of course, what really matters is what all this means for the peace of Jerusalem in the long run. By the way when you watch the video, presented by Al Jareeza no less, of how tough life really seems for the Palestinians. I didn't see too much hardship but if you do, let us know.

PA statehood bid on (indefinite?) hold.

Wondering what's going on with the United Nations' Security Council vote on admitting the Palestinians into the UN? This article tells you as much as there is to know. Take a look.

Stakes Get Higher vs. the U.S. re. upcoming vote and veto on Palestinian state. PLO threatens U.S. big time.

Well, isn't this just wonderful.  The PA -- the supposedly nicer, more reasonable faction of the two (or is it three) entities that represent Palestinians has taken the following action:

It has said it will go for full membership at the UN next week, forcing the US to veto the proposal at the Security Council, and suffer the ire of the majority of the world.  Okay, that's fair politics.  But today the PLO took the next step.

The PLO is now threatening the US that if they veto, they can kiss the possibility of a "two-state" solution good-bye.  The PLO says it may even consider dismantling the PA and allowing its more radical counter-part, Hamas, to take over.  Hamas wants to eliminate Israel and have the Palestinians take over all the land the Israelis now occupy.   The stakes keep getting higher.

And by the way, in case you missed the intricacies of the difficulty the U.S. and Obama in particular are in, the PLO now says the very reason they are going to the U.N. is because "Obama, in his last speech to the UN in 2010, talked about the establishment of an independent and sovereign Palestinian state within one year."

The PA's Abbas efforts to reach an agreement through negotiations have hit a dead end, blaming Israel of course for stubbornness.  Abbas insists the long-term plan is to have a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital.   He agrees that the PLO will continue to be the official representative of all the Palestinians in the meantime.


Palestinians are being called to the streets for a major protest on September 21 (Wednesday), but also to avoid violence in order to not give the Israelis "any excuses to ignite the region" -- nice shifting of blame, isn't it?  Obama has done more than inspire them, he seems to have taught them some great propaganda tactics.  Or, wait, maybe he learned them from them.

Finally, the PLO intends to insure all Palestinian refugees have the "right of return" to their original homes inside Israel.  (Of course, no mention of the Jews that have been moved from their original homes as Israel ceded more and more land over the decades of negotiations.)


Now you know my perspective, but please do read the write-up directly.  Then let us know your views.  Clearly hundreds have commented on the link itself after the article.  What we need to watch for is exactly how the U.S. and the POTUS will handle this situation.  The minute hand depicting the timing of the "end of the world" clock is possibly considering a slight move, depending on what happens next week.

PA Won't Stop UN Bid and If U.S. vetoes, they'll keep coming back.

Here you have it folks. The P.A. is hell-bent on going to the U.N. and even if the U.S. vetoes it at the Security Council, they'll be back again and again until they get what they want.

It reminds me of Turkey who has recently expelled the Israeli Diplomatic staff in Turkey even though the U.N. report ruled Israel had a legal right to block the Flotilla heading to Gaza from Turkey in 2010.

Both remind me of spoiled little brats (a.k.a. children). Stamina is good, however, as long as you're prepared to suffer the consequences of your insistence.

On the other hand, the U.S. is desperately trying to get another peace talk initiative going in lieu of the U.N. bid by the Palestinians. The question is why? I can only guess.

Barack Obama is worried that he is expected to veto the U.N. vote in favor of statehood for the Palestinians as he had promised; but he's afraid of what his leftist and liberal and unionist and Islamic-friendly (all of them together) supporters will think of him come election time if he has to do that.

Talk about being between a rock and a hard place.   Oh, well, there's another adage that goes something like this: "you reap what you sow".   Enjoy the harvest, Mr. President.   Here are the details:

US to UN: Get Tougher on Human Rights If You Want Funds

And stop pointing figures at Israel alone, when so many are so flagrantly violating Human Rights.   Let's see if they can make it hold.  When you come to think it, maybe that's all the U.S. has to offer the world these days -- funds and markets.   Take a look.  The implication is that the whole scenario -- human rights, jihad, Middle East, you name it, is building a wider and wider web from which we cannot escape with supernatural intervention.   Something to think about. 

US may make UN funds conditional on Israel's treatment

The Pieces Are Falling Into Place in the Middle East . . .

From information gleaned from the Middle East Channel at newamerica.net.

First Russia recognizes independent state of Palestine, and the Palestinians can't say 'thank you' enough.

Then Arabs push for a UN resolution on Jewish settlement construction.

Meanwhile, Hezbollah practices being in charge of Lebanon.

Welcome to the Middle East.  Is it just me, or does it appear that things are tightening up over there?  And all the above is from the "one side".   There's still Israel's actions to consider and what they may do with respect to Iran's progress with nuclear capability.

Plot Thickens in the Middle East as P.A. to go to U.N.

Keep an eye on this: Palestinian Authority ignores the request of the U.S. to not seek a U.N. Security Council decision on the Israeli settlements. P.A. hopes the U.S. will not veto the resolution that many other countries will support. This will undoubtedly put the U.S. in a very difficult position. And depending on what the U.S. does, it may put Israel in an even more difficult position. Well worth watching.

Global food crisis around the corner?

Can't say for certain, and certainly can't identify the potential magnitude of any crisis. But the signs do not look good at all. Food prices are rising for many reasons -- everywhere. Grain is in short supply due to global weather conditions including floods of great impact. And much more. The U.N. is worried about "food riots" again. Of course, their credibility is somewhat wanting --- but whether we like it or not, they're still a good source of information and expertise in this regard. Read the attached material and decide for yourself. The impact and you and your family (unless you're an elitist) can be pretty sizeable.
