Annapolis Insanity

The U.S. is preparing for a very ominous summit in Annapolis later this month to move the "peace process" forward.

When all is said and done, the word "Annapolis" is going to take on a new meaning from this historic error.

What do I mean?

When we say "Oslo" today, you probably think of this so-called "Middle East peace process" – one that leads inevitably and inexorably to never-ending appeasement of the Islamists by Israel.

That's essentially what the peace process is all about. It's about doing the same things over and over again and somehow expecting different results.

A good word for this process is "insanity."

Unfortunately, I believe when this Annapolis summit is completed, we will look back at Oslo and what has transpired since as "the good old days."

Here is what is being decided there:

The borders between Israel and a future Palestinian state.

The status of Jerusalem, including those holy places on and adjacent to the Temple Mount.

The so-called "right of return" for so-called Palestinian "refugees" living outside Israel and the Palestinian areas.
Actually, it's not quite accurate to say these things are being decided there. The truth is they have already been decided. The meeting in Annapolis is a formality where they will be unveiled to the world.

Israeli leadership, if that term is not an oxymoron, has determined to let the Muslims have the Temple Mount, the holiest place in Judaism. It has determined to partition Jerusalem. And it has determined to cut further into the current land of Israel in handing over Judea and Samaria permanently to the Muslims.

The script is written. At Annapolis, Israeli leadership is actually prepared to hand over the Temple Mount to the Muslims – to forsake any claims upon it.

You need to understand the mindset of the Israeli political elite. Christians tend to glamorize these folks. In fact, they are very similar to our own politicians here in America – those who are selling out our own birthright, our own unique heritage as a godly people and nation.

The worst fear of the Israeli political elite has always been – since 1967 when the Jews captured the Temple Mount – the rebuilding of the Temple. Most of them see it as nothing more than silly superstition that has the potential to engulf the world in war.

That's why Moshe Dayan quickly put the Temple Mount under the authority of the Muslims immediately after it was captured, and that's why Ehud Olmert and the rest of them will attempt to give it away permanently in a treaty.

The Israeli political leadership went so far in its desire to rid themselves of this troublesome Temple Mount they probably broke their own laws in allowing the Muslims to excavate in and around it. They would do almost anything to undermine the nascent hopes of observant Jews that their Temple might actually be rebuilt.

What a strange time for Israel to lie down before its enemies. Not only is the Jewish state worried rightfully about two potential nuclear threats – one from Iran and the other from a chaotic Pakistan – but there are a multitude of conventional threats as well.


Hezbollah has acquired a small number of missiles capable of targeting Tel Aviv's international airport. This, according to sources, is what Hezbollah's Hassan Nasrallah is referring to in recent speeches when he warns of a "colossal surprise" they have in store in the next conflict with Israel.

As Israel prepares to turn over most of Judea and Samaria to the so-called Palestinians, Hamas – also supported by Iran and Syria – is preparing to stage a takeover of the West Bank similar to the coup it staged in the Gaza Strip.
Do you really want to know how crazy U.S. policy is in the face of these and other threats to Israel's survival?

As WND reports today, a senior Palestinian cleric who is a prominent apologist for suicide bombings met last week with U.S. senators and members of the House of Representatives and consulted last month with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. Sheikh Taysir Tamimi, chief Palestinian justice, also claimed in a recently released book for which he was interviewed the Torah was "falsified," Jewish and Christian history were "invented," the Jewish Temples never existed, the Al Aqsa Mosque was built by angels, and Abraham, Moses and Jesus were really prophets for Islam.

Presumably nothing can stop this juggernaut for "peace." As a result, mark my words, in the future, "Annapolis" will have a new dark meaning for all of us.

EU's Solana Warns Alternative To Mideast Mtg Is Failure - AFP

Tuesday November 13rd, 2007 / 15h14



RAMALLAH, West Bank (AFP)--European Union foreign policy envoy Javier Solana Tuesday urged Israel and the Palestinians to maintain momentum ahead of a peace conference expected later this year in Annapolis.

"It's an opportunity that should be taken," Solana said after meeting with chief Palestinian negotiator Ahmed Qorei in the West Bank city of Ramallah. "The alternative of Annapolis is failure and I'm sure nobody wants this.

"We need to keep the new momentum and political horizon represented by the Annopolis conference," he added, referring to a meeting to be held in the U.S. aimed at reviving the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.
Qorei said in recent negotiations "there have been some limited
achievements, but there are also some obstacles we need to overcome.
"There is a serious discussion underway about all the issues but we still have not arrived at an agreement," he said.

Israel and the Palestinians have been struggling to draft a joint document to serve as the basis for future negotiations leading to the resolution of the decades-old conflict which they hope to present at the conference.
