Arab FMs plot next step in Israel carve-up

The foreign ministers of 12 Arab states met in Cairo on Wednesday to discuss how most effectively to push for the realization of their vision for an Israel-free Middle East.

They selected Jordan and Egypt – the two countries that have signed agreements with Israel – to approach Israel and push the Olmert government towards going along with the Saudi-drafted “peace” plan.

A weak leader who has turned his back on Zionism, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert recently voiced his appreciation for the Saudi plan.

It sees Israel relinquishing hold and claim to its biblical heartland and withdrawing to the 1949 ceasefire lines so that a Palestinian state can be created in Judea, Samaria and Gaza.

The plan requires the Jewish state to surrender large parts of Jerusalem – Israel’s ancient capital – including the Old City and the Jews’ holiest site – the Temple Mount so that “Palestine” can have its capital there.

It also insists that Israel allow millions of Arabs who claim that they, or their parents, were driven from Israel in 1948 and 1967, to “return home.”

If permitted, this “right of return” would swamp what would be left of Israel with Arabs, who would then go on to fight for their right to vote – thereby ousting the Jewish-led government and quickly seeing Israel ingested into “Palestine.”

The states represented at Wednesday’s meeting were Algeria, Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Syria, Sudan, Tunisia and Yemen.

Of course, a representative of the Palestinian Authority was also present.

While differences on a whole gamut of issues have long divided the Arabs, a uniting factor has always been their commitment to the eventual “cleansing” from their Muslim midst of what the press in their countries frequently refers to as “the Jewish cancer.”

The current step in their strategy employs the creation of a Palestinian state on whatever parts of the Land of Israel they can obtain – either through terrorism or negotiation or a combination of both.

For this step they enjoy the support of most the nations of the world.

The London Financial Times Thursday praised the Cairo meeting as “unprecedented in its overture to Israel.”
