Arutz Sheva reported the following today:
According to a report appearing in the British Daily Telegraph, during their White House meeting this week, US President George W. Bush called upon Prime Minister Ehud Olmert to authorize the entry of 1,500 armed PA (Palestinian Authority) security forces into autonomous areas throughout Judea and Samaria.
This is based on an article published by the Daily Telegraph, which goes into more detail about these "requests" that Bush has made to Olmert.
Olmert is reportedly in favor of meeting this request, for the following reason:
Mr Diskin (the head of Israel's domestic spy service) said unless moderates from Fatah became more powerful in the occupied territories, Israel would have to stage widescale incursions to neutralise the growing strength of Hamas and its militant supporters.
"Israel must prepare for a wide military confrontation in the Gaza Strip, if moderate sources in the Palestinian Authority do not get stronger," he said.
Have they completely lost their minds? They think that giving PLO soldiers free reign in the West Bank will do anything other than allow them to make it easier for them to kill Jews? They really think that this will give the PLO ("the good guys") the ability to "neutralise the growing strength of Hamas and its militant supporters"?
The last time I checked, the PLO/Fatah (or whatever you want to call them) do not recognize the right of the State of Israel to exist, are active sponsors of anti-Semitic propaganda through their official media outlets and are pledged to follow the example set by Yassir Arafat (of cursed memory). They are not in favor of making peace with Israel, they would like to see Israel obliterated and they will take advantage of any opening to sponsor and perform more acts of terror against Israel.
Of course, we should have seen this coming, since this is only a natural progression with giving them weapons. Still, I am appalled by the absolute blindness and stupidity being exhibited by those who head Israel's government and security services. Is there something that I am missing here?
