Palestinian Authority chairman and PLO chief terrorist Mahmoud Abbas reportedly came away disappointed from a visit to the White House Thursday his hopes of seeing the Palestinian state he and his fellows have been murdering Jews for years to achieve remaining beyond his grasp; at least for now.

This will be good news for millions of Christians and Israel-supporters in nations around the world who know that the creation of Palestine is, in the Arab mind and purpose, a step on the road towards ensuring the total destruction of the State of Israel.

US President George W. Bush, the first American leader to make his declared policy the dividing of the Land of Israel into two states, has been pushing hard to secure this objective before his second term in office expires early next year.
