Security Council for recognition of the independence of Palestine is the independence of Palestine, stop reading here. Abu Mazen (Mahmoud Abbas) is the last of the secular, revolutionary senior Arafat cronies imported from Tunisia — a Soviet-educated octogenarian in a post-Soviet world. Israelis sometimes […]
http://www.nationalreview.com/articles/print/277700 Obama Hits Bottom… Pres. Barack Obama promised to have a plan to pay for his massive new stimulus bill by Monday.
