Egypt, Jordan Against Unilateral Israeli Withdrawal

Both Jordan and Egypt are against Israel's planned withdrawal from much of the West Bank?

Egypt's President Mubarak and Jordan's King Abdullah, who met this week, issued a joint call against Ehud Olmert's planned transfer of vast areas of Judea and Samaria to the control of Hamas.

The two leaders met in Aqaba, the Jordanian port city adjacent to Eilat, and warned that one-sided solutions will not help in promoting the peace process or regional stability. They said that Israel must negotiate not with Hamas, but with Abu Mazen, the leader of the Fatah organization.

Middle Eastern affairs expert Dr. David Bukai of Haifa University notes the irony, explaining that Egypt and Jordan are more aware of and concerned about the Hamas terror threat than Israel, whose leaders are "criminally" busy with their own problems.

Speaking with Arutz-7's Hebrew newsmagazine on Sunday, Bukai said that Egypt and Jordan feel that the rise of Hamas was enabled because of Israel's retreat from Gaza. "They fear that if Israel continues to withdraw, Hamas will get even stronger, and will become an even greater threat to Egypt and Jordan," he said.

"Jordan and Egypt are threatened by World Jihad terrorism no less than Israel," Bukai explained. "Bin Laden has appointed Musa Abu Zarkawi as the Amir [commander] not only of Iraq, but of the entire Middle East. Egypt is thus threatened by the Al-Qaeda terrorism emanating from Sinai - and this terror can easily reach Israel and Saudi Arabia as well. Jordan, too, knows that Abu Zarkawi - his name indicates that he is of Zarka in Jordan - is interested in taking over Jordan perhaps even more than he wants Iraq. That's why Egypt and Jordan feel threatened. The ties between World Jihad and Hamas are strong, and will become stronger; Hamas is the spearhead of Jihad in the region."

PERSONAL NOTE: Ahhh, I can hear the objections now. I can hear the well reasoned objections of the Enlightened Liberal Left everywhere across this fruited plain, and elsewhere across the globe.

"But Hamas was a democratically elected government. They should be supported..."

"They're only trying to take back what was theirs in the first place, those filthy, thieving Jewzzz..."

"If Jews weren't so nasty, so vile, so, so heartless and brutal, the Palestinian people wouldn't stoop to Israel's level by sending suicide [Homicide] bombers to murder not-so-innocent-Jews-- even though there is no such thing as an innocent Jew... we're willing to be generous..."

Nevermind the fact that Nicolae Ceausescu, despite being a communist in a communist country, was elected to office.

Nevermind the fact that Slobodan Milošević was also elected to the office of president of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia.

Nevermind Idi Amin Dada Oumee, Saddam Hussein, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, and a whole host of individuals throughout all of human history who suffered greatly from a severe case of god-complex...

Fair Warning: Lumping George W. Bush in with that August Company of Butchers and the Merely Insane, will officially-- in regard to this post --label you a Fool.

Just because governments exist-- freely elected or otherwise --doesn't mean these governments should be allowed to do as they wish, to the detriment of not only their own citizens, but their neighbors as well.

"But Eric, these are Jewzzzz! They're heartless and cruel!! They're oppressors!!! They don't deserve the land that IS theirs!!!!"

Do such statements label you as anti-semitic? Perhaps, perhaps not-- It all depends on what's in your heart. But it certainly labels you a hypocrite.

And no, I have no intention of explaining why it makes you a hypocrite. You're in possession of a fine enlightened liberal mind... figure it out for yourself.

Don't worry about Israel, though-- I know most of you don't give a hoot about her anyway --she has all the protector she needs in GOD.

She should, however, exercise a little common sense.

Then you ort not lump Madonna and Al Franken into mainstream liberalism, because they're not mainstream. They're both in the left tail.

Jesus, on the other hand, is smack under the liberal bell.
