Rantisi

Well, Israel has shown that it was serious about taking out the leaders of terrorist organizations. Rantisi was not an easy target, and the fact that they did get him speaks volumes and raises some interesting possibilities. The usual suspects are condemning Israel for it, led by France. Poor France, it is so hard finding and keeping dictators and thugs with whom to be friendly. So much so that it has to turn to China as an ally in its war against America, but then again playing bully against a small island with the help of the biggest kid in the neighborhood is about their speed… In the Middle East, there are already desperate calls to restart the Mid-East Peace Process, especially since there will soon be a de-facto two-state solution in place that will negate all else. A two-state solution that does not guarantee Israel’s demise, but rather its survival, which I suspect is the main reason for the intense opposition to it. Expect the usual bluster and thunder for the next few days…
