NO!

This is over the edge, over the top, beyond UFB. I've had enough. The Church of England is so intent on pleasing and appeasing Muslims that they will abandon their own patron saint. TIME Magazine does a fashion layout of Muslim burqas from around the world. The memorial expression of the heroism and loss from Flt. 93 on 9/11 is to be a National Parks System virtual mosque.

And now ... HAMAS LEADER ISMAIL HANIYEH GETS OP-ED SPACE IN THE WASHINGTON POST ?

You have got to be kidding me.

Aggression Under False Pretenses
By Ismail Haniyeh

GAZA, Palestine -- As Americans commemorated their annual celebration of independence from colonial occupation, rejoicing in their democratic institutions, we Palestinians were yet again besieged by our occupiers, who destroy our roads and buildings, our power stations and water plants, and who attack our very means of civil administration. Our homes and government offices are shelled, our parliamentarians taken prisoner and threatened with prosecution.

I'm hereby calling a personal hudna, a tactical ceasefire, so I can regroup my brain cells, pick my heart up off the floor and rebuild my infrastructure. (Hisbodedut highly recommended.)

While I'm gone, you can refresh in your memory these words of our sages (Sota 49a), quoted by the RaMChal almost three hundred years ago :

In the footsteps of the Messiah, audacity will prevail.... at that time the doers of evil are built up, and the heads of the righteous are lowered to the ground.

After this He will reveal His kingdom ... the transfor-mation of evil itself to good.

The only question is, How long, Lord?

How long ... "after this"?
