Date set for 'Mr Palestine's' visit to Israel

The dates for George W. Bush's first visit to Israel as president of the United States were reportedly confirmed at the weekend.

According to a senior "Palestinian" official quoted in the Israeli press, the American leader - labeled "Mr Palestine' in the November 24-30 edition of The Economist - will visit the Jewish state from January 9 to 11.

He will also call on the terrorist leadership of the "Palestinian Authority" to whom the US wants Israel to surrender the biblical heartland of Samaria and Judea.

Since 2002, Bush has repeatedly expressed his determination to "personally" oversee the creation of a Palestinian state in those historically Jewish lands.

"Palestine's" establishment alongside Israel would be the realization of his "two states vision."

After sending Rice to Israel no less than eight times thi year, and subsequent to his hosting of the international peace conference in Annapolis last month, the president reportedly believes the time has come to bring the full weight of his office to bear on the parties.

In one year that weight will be gone.

Speaking in Annapolis on November 27, Bush told the representatives of 50 nations he had invited to the conference they had come to witness the laying of "a foundation for the establishment of a new nation."

It was during that week that The Economist carried a photograph of Bush on its cover underneith a large headline calling him "Mr Palestine" and describing the American leader as "the only man who could make it happen."

Following the conference, CNN's Wolf Blitzer said that Bush was now "pursuing one of the most ambitious goals of his presidency."

Bible-believing American Christians have expressed their deep concern that, by driving ahead with his plan - which will see Israel divided and enormously endangered - their president is threatening their nation with a terrible curse.
