g through His Teeth!

I once heard a young minister ask an old minister how he knew another minister was lying, and he replied, “Because his lips were moving.” At the time I thought that was a good answer, but I was told it is possible to hold one’s lips apart without moving them while speaking through teeth that are clenched together.
It is referred to as “lying through the teeth.”
There is one thing in which Palestinian Ministers are always consistent – they are consistently lying.
I know the PA Foreign Minister is lying through his teeth, in the article which follows, in order to get more money to kill all their enemies in the future.
The last two short paragraphs in the first article, which follows, has to rate in my book of memories as the most ridiculous statement I am able to recall as passing through the clenched teeth of a Palestinian.
And the horrible reality of it all is that some of the European nations, such as France, actually believe it. It is difficult to believe there are countries and liberal loonies who want to restore funding to a Hamas controlled Palestinian Authority, absolutely naïve enough to not understand they are contributing to their own destruction by Islamic fanatics.
I was 20 years old the first time my foot touched the soil of the Holy Land in 1952.
Since that time I have worked, lived, and visited there in a variety of capacities. I have known, trained, and been trained with, and by, a wide variety of nationalities during the 54 years that followed that first time among Israelis, Arabs, Persians, and Europeans.
I have learned a lot about the people and the gods of the East
and the West by experience and training in Institutions of Higher Learning, and many things in Seminaries and 40 years of preaching out of the Old and New Testaments. So, for better or for worst, out of it all I have reached the following two general conclusions on who to trust in the Middle East and Europe.
Sorry that these two conclusions are not earth shaking and you probably reached them long ago, but at least maybe it will be nice to have someone agree with you.
I do not trust the Arabs, Persians, and most Continental Europeans.
I trust the Israelis and their God.
Now, the two previous conclusions had to be general, because I do trust a few continental Europeans, and a handful of Arabs and Persians I have known over the years, but most I trusted are dead. However, the next three conclusions are quite definite, and I will carry them to my grave.
There can be no lasting peace until Israel’s God returns.
He will not return to earth to bring that peace until Armageddon.
The final war that ends at Armageddon is not a distant event.
Incidentally, Israel’s God is also my God, Jesus Christ, their Messiah.
As I stated previously, the last two short paragraphs in
the Jerusalem Post, which follow, are pure Tommy Rot, the biggest bunch of baloney that ever came down the pike!

PA foreign minister: Hamas undergoing ‘massive’ change
Associated Press, THE JERUSALEM POST
April 2, 2007
Hamas is undergoing a massive transformation and is “ready to change,” the Palestinian Authority foreign minister said in an interview published in a French newspaper Monday.
Ziad Abu Amr, on a three-day visit to France, met Monday with French counterpart Philippe Douste-Blazy and was holding talks Tuesday with Prime Minister Dominique de Villepin.
Speaking to the French daily Le Monde, Abu Amr said he hoped the visit would yield both financial aid and political support for the Palestinian’s new coalition government.
Abu Amr, an independent, said he thought Hamas was willing to change its ideology in order to remain a political player.
“I must admit I’m both surprised and impressed with the speed and the magnitude of Hamas’s transformation,” he is quoted as saying.
He cited Hamas’s willingness to accept a future Palestinian state contained within territory Israel occupied in the Six Day War as an example of the movement’s ideological shift.
“One year ago, the movement would never have accepted a Palestinian state within the 1967 borders,” he said. “When things move with such speed in one year, it makes me think the movement is ready to change.”
He urged the international community to regard the Hamas-Fatah coalition government as a single entity.
“What counts is the coalition government, not any particular faction,” he said.

Hamas prepares ‘rocket war’ in ex-settlement
Terrorists use evacuated lands to test weapons targeted at Israel
Aaron Klein, WND
Palestinian terrori
st groups on Monday used the former Jewish settlement of Neve Dekalim, which was evacuated by Israel in 2005, to test new explosives and rockets for use against the Jewish state, senior members of Hamas’ so-called military wing told WorldNetDaily.
The Hamas members said they set up an explosives testing zone in Gush Katif, Gaza’s former slate of Jewish communities evacuated by Israel 17 months ago.
They said among the explosives Hamas tested Monday in Neve Dekalim were what they called new “Yassin” rockets, which they said were improved versions of Russian-made rocket propelled grenades.
The Hamas members said the rocket was named after late Hamas spiritual leader Sheik Ahmed Yassin, who was assassinated by Israel in 2004.
Hamas would not describe the specifics of the purported new rocket, but a Hamas member said his group was preparing for a “rocket war” against Israel.
The use of Neve Dekalim as an explosives training zone is the latest in a string of WND exclusive reports of Gaza’s former Jewish communities being utilized for terror.
Abu Abdullah, considered one of the most important operational members of Hamas’ Izzedine al-Qassam Martyrs Brigades, Hamas’ declared “resistance” department, said in an interview Hamas turned lands in Eli Sinai and Dagit are being used for “physical shape exercises; use of weapons training; practice lands for ambushes of Israeli forces; courses for the reading of maps and (production and use of) explosives and many other trainings; military techniques, fighting in open fields and in built and populated areas; and rockets shooting.”
Abu Abdullah called the utilization by Hamas of the former Jewish towns for anti-Israel activity “proof that the resistance works.”
