. . . BREAKING NEWS . . .
*3:24 pm: A suicide bomber has blown himself up on Istiklal Street in Istanbul as a tour group was passing by. According to still sketchy reports, 7 or 8 Israelis are among the 36 wounded; apparently between 2 and 4 Israelis are dead.
*At 8:13 am this morning, a Palestinian terrorist tried to stab Border Guards at the Pharmacy Checkpoint in Kiryat Arba. One Israeli was “moderately” wounded. The terrorist was shot and killed.
UPDATES 8:00 am Israel time
–>Palestinian terrorists struck numerous times yesterday.
“Rock” attacks, Molotov attacks, shooting attacks, stabbing attacks–all of these marked Friday in Israel.
In the four worst attacks:
*A Border Guard in Ni’lin was “moderately” wounded when he was hit by a “rock” in face. The terrorist escaped.
*Israeli soldiers were attacked by a knife-wielding Palestinian terrorist at the Gush Etzion Junction. No Israelis were wounded. The terrorist was shot and killed.
*A Palestinian stabbing attack was thwarted at the entrance to the Sha’ar Binyamin industrial zone in Samaria where IDF soldier Tuvia Weissman was murdered two weeks ago. Two knife-wielding terrorists were captured.
*Shots were fired at a bus at Exit 37 near Neve Yaakov. Everyone on the bus lay down on the floor, and remarkably no one was wounded. The terrorists escaped.
–>And more terrorism, as always, in the Friday riots . . .
Every Friday after imams in the mosques in Judea, Samaria, Gaza, and eastern Jerusalem finish their incendiary noon sermons, Muslims stream out into the streets to riot. Once out in those streets they are met by international “peace activists” and Israeli leftists who join them in spending the afternoon throwing “rocks” and Molotovs at Israeli security forces.
Yesterday was no exception with riots in Aida, Ma’ale Levona, Bethlehem, near Nahal Oz on the Gaza border, A-Ram, Husan, on the Mt. of Olives, in Silwad, and at Rachel’s Tomb.
–>Great news! An Israeli soldier has awakened from a medically induced coma.
The soldier who was viciously stabbed by the two Palestinian terrorists at the Ariel Junction two days ago has awakened, begun talking, and even started laughing again. Stabbed in the throat and in the upper torso, Ophir Kimmel was evacuated to the hospital in critical condition.
Her recovery has been remarkable.
–>Picking up the slack from the loss of sales to Europe.
There is no doubt that Jordan Valley farmers are beginning to fill the pinch from the “boykott” measures introduced by the European Union regarding labeling products from Judea, Samaria, and the Golan.
Nevertheless, the good news is that sales to new markets in the Far East–in particular China and Korea–are soaring.
For example, this year has seen a 300% increase in the exports of red grapefruit to these areas, and sales to the Far East now constitute 16% of total exports of this fruit. The Israel Plant Board predicts that this percentage will double in the coming year.
TODAY’S BLOG:
When your humble servant thinks back over the last week, he is struck again by the Obama Administration’s delusional obsession with the Palestinians. It is an obsession shared by many others, most notably at present the French.
On March 13, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry was in Paris meeting with French FM Jean-Marc Ayrault. What he said at a joint press conference there should not surprise anyone, but bears repeating here.
Kerry began by acknowledging those present:
“I want to thank all of our colleagues who have come here to Paris today: Philip Hammond, the foreign secretary; Frank-Walter Steinmeier, the foreign minister of Germany; Paolo Gentiloni of Italy; and of course, the high representative of the EU, Federica Mogherini.”
A more motley cast of characters would be hard to assemble–particularly, of course, the high priestess of the EU, Arafatophile Federica Mogherini.”
Kerry flatulated on by unctuously flattering the assembled group:
“It’s unusual to come together to meet on a Sunday morning, but everybody made the effort to do so today because we all are mindful of the crises that we confront simultaneously.”
The crises that we confront simultaneously . . . one wonders what they might be?
Kerry quickly delineated them:
“And you have just heard Jean-Marc lay out a series of locations and names of countries that also represent enormous challenges to all of us in the world today: Libya, Yemen, Syria, the Middle East Peace Process.”
Who in the world would list Libya as number one on the list of crises? Or Yemen as number two? Or the Middle East Peace Process at all? Doesn’t the never-ending war in Syria which is now home to Iran, Hezbollah, Russia (despite claims of an impending pullout), IS, and numerous other groups, and resulted in hundreds of thousands of deaths take precedence?
But Kerry was just getting started. In response to a Reuters’ reporter’s question about the peace process, Kerry said this:
“Well, with respect to the peace process, we welcome anybody’s efforts to try to find a way forward. Obviously, the United States and I personally have been deeply involved in trying to do that over the last few years. And we remain deeply, deeply committed to a two-state solution. It is absolutely essential as the only way forward to find peace between the Palestinians and Israelis.”
“I personally?” Kerry is still on the trail of a Nobel Peace Prize.
A two-state solution is the only way forward to find peace? How many times does PM Netanyahu have to say that a simple Palestinian declaration that “Israel is a Jewish state” is all that it will take to get the “peace process” rolling? And how many times does Mahmoud Abbas have to say, as he does everyday, that the Palestinians will “never accept a Jewish state of Israel” before anyone will believe him?
Kerry continued:
“I was in the region just recently, met with President Abbas. And we are talking about any number of different ways to try to change the situation on the ground in an effort to try to establish some confidence and begin to be able to move forward.”
As we all know by now, in Obama Administration jargon, “establish some confidence” equals “Israel making concessions.”
Kerry plodded on:
“We welcome [French Middle East envoy] Pierre Vimont when he comes to Washington next week to meet with our special envoy. And we will continue as always to work together. There’s no way any one entity or one country or one person is going to resolve this. This is going to require the global community. It’s going to require tremendous support. Federica Mogherini and I met together with Lavrov, Foreign Minister Lavrov and the UN as part of the Quartet, and we are continuing to work.”
More political jargon. “It’s going to require tremendous support” means “it’s going to require tremendous pressure.” Everyone is going to have to pressure Israel into concessions.
And finally, Kerry explained why all of this focus on the “Middle East process” is really necessary:
“So we will all join together in what is a common enterprise, finding peace that has been elusive for too many years. And I hear from too many people – just the other day I was in Saudi Arabia. I met with King Salman and the crown princes, the crown prince and deputy crown prince. Every one of them affirmed the fact that resolving Israel-Palestine would take an enormous point of contention out of the recruitment and ether and debate and struggle and anger and passion that drives so much of what is happening in the region.”
“To take an enormous point of contention out of the recruitment”? The recruitment of whom? Fighters for IS?
Now Israel is responsible for that too?
Yes, in the world of Obama, Kerry, and all of the other “diplomats” in Paris. Once the Palestinians are given everything they want, then the “anger and passion that drives so much of what is happening in the region” will just disappear.
Shi’ites will love Sunnis, Saudis will embrace Iranians, IS will crawl back into its hole, and Iran will stop firing ballistic missiles and just give up on its nuclear weapons program.
What a wonderful world it will be.
