Musical chairs anyone?

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and George Mitchell were in the Mid East Wednesday, playing the game of musical chairs we all find so amusing.

The American-mediated talks in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt got off to a rocky start Tuesday morning but concluded in the early afternoon without any disruptions. More talks are scheduled in Jerusalem and Ramallah Wednesday.

U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton Wednesday morning laid the groundwork for arguing that Israel needs a new Arab state in order to remain “democratic and Jewish.”

Speaking with President Shimon Peres in Jerusalem at the opening of the second straight day of talks between Israel and PA leaders, Clinton stated, “The status quo is unsustainable” even if it can last for another 30 years. “The only path to ensure Israel’s future as a secure democratic and Jewish state“ is an Arab state, headed by the Palestinian Authority, “alongside” Israel.

But at least one person “gets it”, and writes:

Peace? Get Real!

While Israel marches blindly into the snare of "negotiations," the Arab terrorists continue to attack us. Get real! What's the point? You can't "make peace" with people who want to annihilate you, so why hasn't the Israeli Government told Obama, Clinton, Blair etc to get packing and leave us alone?

Meanwhile Israel is under attack on a daily basis:

Israeli Air Force bombed targets in Gaza Wednesday, killing at least one terrorist after a massive missile and mortar barrage on southern Israel Wednesday morning. At least 10 explosions rocked the area from the western Negev to an area between the port cities of Ashkelon and Ashdod. A major electricity generating station and oil and gas pipelines are located in Ashkelon. Ashdod is home to dozens of oil refineries.

Citing 'credible information', the U.S. Embassy in Jordan today issued a warning to avoid the Jordanian port city on the Red Sea because of a 'possible imminent threat in the Gulf of Aqaba region'. Dale Gavlak reports from Amman that Jordanian officials have no information about a pending attack, but adds that last month, a rocket struck the city, killing one person.

Hamas continued to gain strength this past summer as about 100,000 youngsters underwent radical anti-Israel indoctrination at dozens of summer camps run by the terrorist group – which also attacked United Nations camps, its main competition – according to a report released on Tuesday by the Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center According to the report, more than 100,000 children and teenagers participated in the Hamas camps, which included paramilitary training and military parades. The Islamic Jihad terrorist organization also opened 51 different summer camps for over 10,000 children.

And now this: 

MOORHEAD, Minn. — A woman wearing whipped cream and not much else has been cited for indecent exposure at a Walgreens.

The Forum newspaper of Fargo, N.D., reports that police say the 37-year-old Moorhead woman walked into the store about 5:45 p.m. Sunday wearing on a thong, pasties, a "partial" towel and whipped cream.

Police Lt. Tory Jacobson tells the newspaper the woman told police she was a "free thinker" who was trying to attract attention and encourage people to defy society's norms.

A bystander called police and gave the woman a blanket to cover herself.

Jacobson says the woman later conceded her actions might have been "a little over the top." Police gave her a ticket and took her home.

Cordoba House:

Cordoba House:

Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf, Chairman of the Cordoba Initiative also known as the “9-11 Imam”, addressed a packed room at the Council on Foreign Relations in New York today.

“The events of the past weeks have really saddened me to my very core. I regret that some have misunderstood our intentions.”

Feisal added that harmful stereotypes and the heated political climate ahead of the elections have compounded the stresses surrounding the construction of PARK 51, the Muslim community center near the World Trade Center site. He offered his heartfelt sympathy and prayers to the victims of 9-11 and their families.

He also thanked President Obama and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg for speaking out against religious intolerance.

“My goal here today is to reach out to my brothers and sisters of different faiths in America… And second, to reach out to my Muslim brothers and sisters all over the world to explain and share my love of America.”

He described his arrival to the states in 1968 and identified himself as an “American” and a “New Yorker.”

“Every religion in the world has extremists…Sadly, Islam is one of them. But let me clear ladies and gentlemen, Islam categorically rejects the killing of innocent people.”

Are Americans completely ignorant of history?

“Cordoba,” in Islamic symbolic terms, means Islamic rule in the West. It does not mean “coexistence,” unless coexistence is interpreted as referring to Islamic rule.

Pamela Geller at Atlas Shrugs cites the article (original in Arabic) published by Iraqi-American Khudhayr Taher on 18 May, in which Taher explains the following:

We must note that a hostile and provocative name [Cordoba] has been chosen for this mosque… Choosing the name ‘Cordoba House’ for the mosque to be constructed in New York was not coincidental or random and innocent. It bears within it significance and dreams of expansion and invasion [into the territory] of the other, [while] striving to change his religion and to subjugate him…

It used to not even be a stretch for reasonably well educated Westerners to recognize the place of Spain and Cordoba in the history of the West and Islam. Many of today’s younger adults, however, have learned nothing about the Mediterranean before 1492 except that the Muslim period in Spain was a flowering of science, art, and culture.

There was a great deal to admire in the accomplishments of the Muslim Cordobans, but they did, in fact, invade and conquer Spain, sell its inhabitants into slavery, provide a base for slaver raids into other parts of Europe, and rule by the sword in much of the caliphate.

Shelomo Alfassa: Beware the Cordoba Initiative...

[Shelomo Alfassa is the former US director of Justice for Jews from Arab Countries and a scholar of Judaic life in Islamic Spain. He lives in New York.]

The world should know that the ‘Cordoba Initiative,’ the New York City based organization desiring to construct a massive Islamic house of prayer at ‘Ground Zero,’ has posted on its website, a peculiar and disingenuous statement indicating the desire to bring back the atmosphere of, “interfaith tolerance and respect that we have longed for since Muslims, Christians and Jews lived together in harmony and prosperity eight hundred years ago.” the seat of the caliphate established in what is now modern Spain after the Islamic invasion from North Africa in the 8th century A.D.

The medieval occupation of Spain – “al-Andalus” – is considered by Islamic theorists to have been an inevitable step in the manifest destiny of Islam, and its eventual reversal through the lengthy European “Reconquista” a tragic but temporary triumph of the infidels. The great mosque at Cordoba was built on the foundation of a Christian cathedral, and when Europeans retook Cordoba in the 13th century they turned the magnificent mosque back into a cathedral.

The question is, who do you believe? a man making "a peculiar and disingenuous statement" or 500 years of human history?
