Lying scumbag

30Sep08

Despicable fraud

“Ariel Sharon spoke about painful costs and refused to elaborate … I say, we have no choice but to elaborate. In the end of the day, we will have to withdraw from the most decisive areas of the territories. In exchange for the same territories left in our hands, we will have to give compensation in the form of territories within the State of Israel …

“What I am saying to you now has not been said by any Israeli leader before me … We have to reach an agreement with the Palestinians, the meaning of which is that in practice we will withdraw from almost all the territories, if not all the territories … We will leave a percentage of these territories in our hands, but will have to give the Palestinians a similar percentage, because without that there will be no peace … Including in Jerusalem … Whoever wants to hold on to all of the city’s territory will have to bring 270,000 Arabs inside the fences of sovereign Israel. It won’t work….

“A decision has to be made. This decision … contradicts our natural instincts, our innermost desires, our collective memories, the prayers of the Jewish people for 2,000 years.”

“I am not trying to justify retroactively what I did for 35 years. For a large portion of these years, I was unwilling to look at reality in all its depth…”

Oh, really?

    This is quite amusing:

    “Outgoing Prime Minister Ehud Olmert has offered the Palestinians sovereignty over the Jordan Valley, in exchange for Israel retaining three main settlement blocs in the West Bank, Army Radio reported on Sunday.

    The deal would allow Israel to retain the West Bank settlements of Ariel, Ma’aleh Adumim, and the Gush Etzion bloc, according to the report.”

    It’s like Iran “offering” the U.S. sovereignty over New York if it gets to keep Washington D.C.

    only Olmert could come up with this one… an ex-lame duck-who-is-still-a-lame-politician “offers” the Palestinians a piece of “nothing”…

    Lets hear it for the shameless-has-been in a long line of shameless-has-been’s…

    Very shocking. In fact, it’s very very shocking. It’s like India being shitted on by the Venzuelia goverment and then being told they were in the wrong place at the wrong time.

    The only way these kind of situations can be brought to a hult is if The Beatles were reunited. I’m sure John Lennon has reincarned into another being by now… (excuse my shit knowledge on who’s passed on)

    Well …. Donkey balls

    Yea — what a piss-take. He’s just trying to look good for the international press (who have fallen for this line by publishing the story widely). Incidentally, there is a long history of Israelis doing this — Ben Gurion himself said something similar about withdrawing from the occupied territories AFTER he was out of power.

    Yes, and even people like Shlomo Ben-Ami only acknowledeged something approximating the truth once they’d left office. It’s not just Israeli officials, of course – see Colin Powell, for example, or Jimmy Carter.
