I love this. An Israeli committee has approved a new Israeli settlement in the West Bank and all that is needed for final approval is a sign off by Defense minister Barak, and that is expected without a hitch. All of this just days after Britain's Prime Minister Gordon Brown made a fool of himself calling on the Israelis to establish NO MORE settlements. Here's the details coming from Breitbart:
Get that? This putz pali wants the U.S. to help him and the Palis fight this. Ahem, Erekat...how short do you think my memory is? You don't think I remember the candy handed out in the celebration in the West Bank and Gaza when the NYC Twin Towers and the Pentagon were hit? You don't think that image of you palestinian piglets rejoicing in the streets at the news of 3,000 dead Americans isn't seared into my memory? You piece of shit. You think I have forgotten how you celebrated the massacre of the Jewish seminary students in Jerusalem last year?
Sad part of it is that Secretary Rice WILL probably put pressure on the Israelis to change their minds and I hope the Israelis tell Condi to fuck off. With what the palis have done to Israel in the past year, the Israelis should be building settlements left and right. All with a huge wall of separation. It's high time that the isolation of the palis was made final and permanent.
A key committee has approved construction of the first new Jewish settlement in the West Bank in a decade, an Israeli official said Thursday. The news infuriated Palestinians, who said the decision could cripple peace efforts.Now, I bring you a quote from one of the asshat Palestinian negotiators, some whining piglet by the name of Saeb Erekat:
The only hurdle that remains is Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who plans to approve the Maskiot settlement within weeks, the official said. Barak had signaled to the national planning committee that it should authorize the plan, the official said.
The offficial spoke on condition of anonymity because the Defense Ministry did not officially announce the settlement would be built in the Jordan Valley Rift, an arid north-south strip that forms Israel's eastern flank with Jordan.
"This is destroying the process of a two-state solution," Erekat said. "I hope the Americans will make the Israelis revoke the decision. I think they can make the Israelis do this."

Israel to build new settlement in West Bank
JERUSALEM (AP) - A key committee has approved construction of the first new Jewish settlement in the West Bank in a decade, an Israeli official said Thursday. The news infuriated Palestinians, who said the decision could cripple peace efforts.
The only hurdle that remains is Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who plans to approve the Maskiot settlement within weeks, the official said. Barak had signaled to the national planning committee that it should authorize the plan, the official said.
The offficial spoke on condition of anonymity because the Defense Ministry did not officially announce the settlement would be built in the Jordan Valley Rift, an arid north-south strip that forms Israel's eastern flank with Jordan.
Asked why Israel was moving ahead with the politically charged plan, the official said that it has been in the pipeline for years.
Israel originally announced in 2006 that it would build Maskiot, then froze the plan after international outcry. But earlier this year, nine Israeli families settled in mobile homes at the site, which Palestinians claim as part of a future state.
Settlers say around two dozen more families are waiting to join them.
Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erekat accused Israel of undermining U.S.-backed peace talks.
"This is destroying the process of a two-state solution," Erekat said. "I hope the Americans will make the Israelis revoke the decision. I think they can make the Israelis do this."
When talks renewed last year after a seven-year breakdown, Israel promised not to establish new settlements in the West Bank. The two sides set a goal of reaching a final peace accord by the end of the year, but have since scaled back their ambitions, in part because disputes over Israeli settlement have impeded progress on peacemaking.
Palestinians want the final deal to outline the formation of a Palestinian state in most of the West Bank, the Gaza Strip and east Jerusalem. Israel captured those territories in the 1967 Mideast war.
Asked to comment on the revival of the plan to build Maskiot, Israeli government spokesman Mark Regev said, "Israel will stand by its commitments," and noted that Barak has not yet given final approval for the construction.
He would not elaborate. But Israel historically has interpreted its commitments on halting settlement expansion differently from the rest of the international community.
The Maskiot community is made up of settlers Israel evacuated from Gaza when it left the territory three years ago. When it withdrew from Gaza, Israel promised not to relocate evacuated settlers to the West Bank.
