Nothing Left to Negotiate W ith

I agree wholeheartedly with the assessment of King Abdullah of Jordan in article one from the Jerusalem Post, which follows. It aligns perfectly with the extract from article two, also from the Jerusalem Post. We are finally going to see a false peace established that can be controlled by force by Israel.
If the Palestinians fail to negotiate the future borders of the Palestinian state
within two years, then they will be established unilaterally by force by Israel, and Israel will determine where they are placed.
This would mean that the new borders would be the positioning of the security wall being built by Israel, which would be in place by 2008, and it would be declared by Israel to be the official border between themselves and the new Palestinian state. This action would inflame the Arab world and bring down the ire of most of the international community against Israel. So this causes King Abdullah’s assessment to agree quite well with my guesstimate that some 10 Arab nations will attack Israel at some point in time between 2008 and 2012.

King Abdullah: Peace Must be Made within Two Years

Jordan’s King Abdullah II asserted on Sunday that the peace negotiations between the Israelis and the Palestinians must be completed within two years.
“I fear if this short time is over and we don’t reach a settlement that there will nothing left for the Palestinians to negotiate over,” he said in an interview to Al Arabiya.

Olmert Takes Office Vowing to Change Borders
By Etgar Lefkovits, THE JERUSALEM POST

After four months of filling in for Ariel Sharon, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert moved into the Prime Minister’s Office on Sunday, vowing to redefine Israel’s borders and crack down on illegal Jewish settlement activity in the West Bank.
“In the next few years, we will change Israel’s character to ensure it will be a state with a solid Jewish majority living within defensible borders that can provide security to its residents and separate us from those who must live alongside us and not among us,” he said at a ceremony marking his move.
Olmert, who headed a caretaker government since Sharon was felled by a massive stroke on January 4, had previously refrained from moving into the Prime Minister’s Office in deference to the comatose leader, maintaining his previous office in the more modest Industry and Trade Ministry while he served first as acting prime minister and then as interim prime minister.
Indeed, the ceremony marking his move into Sharon’s office, attended by his wife Aliza, scores of office workers from governments past and present and close friends, was marked with nostalgia and longing for the former prime minister.
“If we could ensure that Ariel Sharon would be here, I would wait without any problems as much time as was required before entering this building,” Olmert said. “However, Arik is not here and our prayers and longing are with him.”
At the new government’s first cabinet meeting earlier in the morning, coming on the heels of the forced eviction of three Jewish squatter families in Hebron, Olmert reiterated that the government would not accept lawlessness in the territories.
“Wherever the law is violated, wherever there is illegal squatting and wherever there are attempts to determine these kinds of facts, we will respond immediately, without compromise,” he told the cabinet, according to a government communique.
“We have reiterated that we will not countenance the illegal determination of facts and violations of the law anywhere, certainly not in these sensitive areas.”
Olmert has taken a harsher stance than Sharon in cracking down on illegal Jewish settlements in the West Bank, as was first seen during February’s razing of illegal structures at the Amona outpost, a controversial operation which left 200 people injured.
Concomitantly, he pledged to push ahead with his convergence plan, which would see the forced evacuation of residents from scores of isolated West Bank settlements, while strengthening the major settlement blocs.
Olmert indicated that he will act unilaterally if the Hamas-led Palestinian Authority government sticks to its refusal to recognize Israel, renounce violence and accept previous peace agreements.
