London police discovered a car bomb, made of propane gas tank and nails. Early discovery spared local restaurant-goers a stomach pain.

Israeli government mulls implementing an amnesty clause from a 2005 memorandum with Palestinians which stipulates that Israel is not to hunt down the wanted terrorists who renounced violence. Whether they committed crimes against Jews in the past, doesn’t matter. Nothing precludes Palestinian terrorists from both renouncing violence publicly and continuing terrorism secretly.

Hosni Mubarak rejected Olmert’s offer for a direct meeting with Saudi Arabia officials as unrealistic: “The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has circumstances that differ from those of any other state. They have holy lands and men of religion.” Apparently, Israel has neither of them.
Olmert surely knew of the futility of his call for negotiations with Saudi Arabia, but he needs to play his part in the peace process show.

the IDF kills Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade gunman. Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade is now formally a part of Abu Mazen’s security forces, armed by Israel.
The IDF seized a few homemade bombs, grenades, and arrested a Tanzim member. Olmert, Abu Mazen plan releasing Tanzim leader Marwan Barghouti.

Speaking at the Caesaria Conference, Olmert rejected the calls for maximum enforcement of Sderot houses because “expensive resources” are needed elsewhere.
Olmert adopted the Kahane’s rhetoric, saying that Israelis are less at risk than the Diaspora Jews. Jewish establishment derided the late Rabbi Meir Kahane for warning of the threat of American anti-Semitism.

The Knesset delegation discussed strengthening Israel-Belarus’ ties. Weeks ago, Iran and Belarus reached similar understanding during Ahmadinejad’s visit.

David Miliband will hold the office in Gordon Brown’s cabinet. Miliband, as other “court Jews,” will strive to prove the British his impartiality despite being Jewish. Miliband criticized Israel during the Second Lebanon War.
Another British Jew, a High Commissioner of the Mandate Palestine Herbert Samuel, appointed Amin Husseini a mufti of Jerusalem which paved the way to Jewish pogroms several years later.

Abbas recent order to Palestinian militants to disarm produced no results. Al Aqsa Martyrs’ Brigade and Hamas formally rejected the demand while common Palestinians, armed to the teeth, simply sabotaged Abbas efforts.
Yuval Diskin, head of Israeli security service Shin-Beth, confirmed at the Cabinet meeting that Fatah is far weaker than Hamas even in the West Bank.

Dr. Ashrah Marwan, a prominent Egyptian and son-in-law of Gamal Nasser, was killed on Wednesday in London. Dr. Ashraf passed to Israel enormous amounts of top-level intelligence on Egypt, and informed Mossad of the Egyptian attack fully two days before the Yom Kippur War.

One scum named Eli Zeira, who headed the IDF Military Intelligence in 1973 and was fired after the war on the recommendations of Agronot Commission for gross negligence, revealed Dr. Ashraf identity in his silly and self-serving 1993 book.

Even on the background of Israel’s notoriously careless approach to her agents and collaborators, Zeira’s vengeful revelation of the spy’s identity amounts to a high crime.

Jerusalem police devastated religious neighborhoods of Jerusalem days before the gay parades to preclude the protests. Arutz Sheva reports on wholesale destruction of property with water cannons, beatings of rabbis and other religious Jews with fists, feet, and batons.

In an unusually realistic assessment of Israeli perspectives under the American Roadmap plan, Bush hailed Israel as a model for Iraq. Presumably, if Israelis do not want to travel down the Iraqi road, their should reject the American peace plan.
The American president said he envisages a victory in Iraq as “a dawn of a Middle East where leaders are at peace with their own people.” Sure, and wolves with lay down with lambs.
Bush is so removed from the facts. He claimed that soccer matches and crowded markets are signs of normalcy in Iraq. In fact, soccer matches never ceased in Iraq and markets were always crowded as most Iraqis buy food there.
Bush defined a new American goal in Iraq: democracy there must function despite the car bombings. In other words, America can withdraw anytime, since Iraq already has a functioning democratic façade. Israel will be left to deal with a terrorist state of Iraq, a mega-Gaza.
