Destroying the Palestinian fantasy

Strategy Page:

Over 3,000 have died as a result of the Palestinian war (or "Intifada), including 1,065 Israelis. But the Israeli casualties are down 70 percent in the last year. The Palestinians are dealing with the fact that their attempt to force a better peace deal via a massive terror campaign has failed. The Israeli counter-terrorism tactics and security wall have stopped most of the suicide bombing attacks. The Palestinians have not been able to exploit the victim status in the international media to gain useful allies against Israel. The Palestinians have also been hurt by the war on terror, as their terrorist attacks on Israelis do not play well to a global population made nervous by the growing threat of Islamic terrorism. Within the Palestinian community, anger over corruption, poverty (caused largely by the after-effects of the terrorist attacks) and infighting between different terrorist factions, has led to disunity and inability to put together any kind of peace deal. Moreover, the Palestinian terrorist organizations are still determined to destroy Israel. For the moment, the Palestinian situation appears hopeless. Eventually, some kind of solution will turn up. Unfortunately, no one yet knows what that solution will be.


Actually the solution is obvious, it is just one the Palestinians to date have not been willing to accept. Each time their fantasy of destroying Israel is destroyed they seek brand new ways to lose.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t
