In the latest news developments:

Police brutality against demonstrators in Gaza. Via Israpundit.

Hamas declares Jihad again.

Also from the Jerusalem Post, in an earlier article:

Avi Dichter, who retired as Shin Bet head last week, warned on Wednesday that Hamas had built an army in Gaza based on the Hizbullah model in Lebanon.

"In the Gaza Strip, despite our pinpoint [military] actions, the terrorist infrastruture remains intact," Dichter told an economic conference in Jerusalem.

"An army of thousands of people who belong to Hamas are building on the model of Hizbullah in Lebanon." He did not elaborate.

Ariel Sharon holds back on serious operations against Hamas, all in order to appease Condoleeza Rice, when she announced her intention to visit.

Solidarity with anti-disengagement prisoners.

On Discover the Network's Moonbat Central, there's a discussion about how in truth, the mideast conflict has nothing to do with land. In fact, Peter David once pointed out on his own weblog a few years ago that in truth, the "palestinians" don't want a state; rather, they want a way in which to attack Israel:

One of the few things unchallengeable about the Middle East conflict is that it has virtually nothing to do with land. Arab countries already control 6,145,389 square miles of land. That is almost twice the land area of the United States, which is 3,537,438 square miles, and about the same as the land area of Russia. Israel, even when including all of the "occupied territories" retained from the 1967 SIx Day War, controls less than 10,000 square miles.

Perhaps this will help those who don't understand what this conflict is all about to understand it now?

ZOA discovers that Foxman's poll isn't valid.

Last March, it was discovered that the ultra-knee-jerk Observer/Guardian website has reported that an anti-Israel play based on Rachel Corrie has become a hit in London. Oh, and look at what the newspaper said:

"She was the young American with blond hair whose death became an unlikely but powerful political symbol for the troubles of Palestine.

Now Rachel Corrie, crushed to death by an Israeli army bulldozer in the Gaza Strip two years ago, has caught the imagination of a fresh audience as her life story emerges as one of the most sought-after theatre tickets in the country."

Wow. And they even use the Roman name for Israel in its typical deligitimazation manner. But they don't include the following scene in the play:
I would personally recommend a boycott of British products if that's how they're going to behave, and allow this kind of trash to continue, ditto the use of propaganda words and sugarcoated reports on how a play like this "captivates" the audience.

Front Page Mag's got an article on how Arab parents in PLO controlled areas are actually willing to sacrifice their children, and even women, for the sake of "peace". Including their current dictator Mahmoud Abbas.

Preaching before an audience that included Abbas, Sheikh Yusuf Juma’ Salamah said in Friday’s sermon on PA TV that the ideal Palestinian woman is like Al Khansah, the heroine of Islamic tradition who celebrated her four sons’ death in battle by thanking God for the honor. Salamah, the PA Minister of Waqf, quoted Al Khansah: “Praise Allah, who granted me honor with their deaths.” [PA TV, March 11, 2005] It’s important to note that this was the first Friday sermon broadcast since the PA announced last week that it would control and vet all Friday sermons delivered in West Bank and Gaza strip mosques. This portrayal of the ideal Palestinian woman as one who willingly sacrifices her sons as Shahids, therefore, continues to represent official PA ideology – especially since this sermon was delivered in the presence of Abbas.

I think it could very well be said that Abbas is more or less a misogynist if this is what he's going to tolerate, advocate and promote.

On a side note, here's an earlier article telling how Hamas got elected in Qualqilya.

In the Jerusalem Post, Daniel Pipes points out how, even after Yasir Arafat's death, the Arabs are still determined to go to war with Israel:

How do things look a half year after Arafat's death? About as awful as anyone might have expected. Specifically, Abbas is unambiguously leading the Palestinians to war after the Israeli retreat from Gaza in August 2005.

More to follow in the article.

Update: Israel National News reported that defense minister Shaul Mofaz has told the cabinet that Strella anti-aircraft missiles have been smuggled into Gaza by terrorists:

Defining the recent weapons smuggling as “crossing a red line”, Mofaz said, “We have passed messages on to the [Palestinian] Authority so they can get their hands on the Strellas.”

He said the PA still has not complied with Israel’s demands regarding the missiles, however. As a result, he said he has “ordered preparations for handing over the city of Kalkilya [to PA control], but not to transfer” the city just yet. Kalkilya, located in the Sharon area, is just a few miles from Israel’s most populous region.

As usual, no surprise here. It was reported by The Jewish Press once several years ago that the previous dictator, Yasir Arafat, tried to smuggle weapons those into his headquarters in Gaza, and this is certainly no different.

The ADL has reported that anti-Semitic incidents in the US have reached a 9-year high. Not good.

And Barry Rubin reports at the Jerusalem Post that terrorism is still being endorsed in many Arab countries in the middle east. Not good either.
