One Way or the other, a Palestinian State is coming into Existence!

We are floating down a river of no return into a false peace maintained by the military might of Israel. It is the only kind of peace that can be achieved in Israel prior to the Second Advent of Christ, and it must be temporary in nature. It should come into place in Israel in 2008, but it is likely to be broken by an Islamic Jihad attack against Israel from the north at some point in time before 2012.

It outlines the current track being followed together by the U.S. and Israel in the seemingly never ending Middle East peace seeking process.

‘Palestinians’ Will Get a State, Regardless
But Bush Cool on Idea of Unilateral Surrender
By Ryan Jones

The message out of Washington Tuesday was that while the US and Israel would like to see the Palestinian Arabs become true partners for peace, the latter will be given the state they demand regardless of whether they fully recognize Israel and stop murdering Jews or not.
Meeting for the first time with Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert in that elevated position, US President George W.
Bush was said to have given his tacit approval to the so-called “convergence” or “realignment” plan should a viable “Palestinian” peace partner not emerge in the coming six-to-nine months.
Said Bush at a joint press conference following the meeting:
“Our preferred option, of course, is there to be a negotiated settlement.
On the other hand, as the prime minister said, that if he is unable to find a partner in peace, if nothing can go forward, he is willing to think about ways to advance the process forward.”
In a manner reminiscent of Ariel Sharon playing up less-than-enthusiastic support for his “disengagement” plan, Olmert said Bush had responded to his initiative in a “very clear and remarkable way.”
Olmert and his government believe that by handing over Judea and Samaria to a Hamas-led Palestinian Authority not interested in peace with Israel, they can somehow bring the nation increased security and lessen friction with the Arabs and the international community over the so-called “occupation.”
Bush, on the other hand, sees Olmert’s withdrawal plan, like Sharon’s diseng agement before it,
as a means of jump-starting the all-but-dead Road Map peace plan.
But rather than jump start the peace process, Sharon’s disengagement from the Gaza Strip and northern Samaria led to the electoral victory of Hamas, making true peace more distant than ever. Many Israelis expect similar results from Olmert’s policies.
