Lights, camera, peace process!

The Israeli Left is on a collision course with the Obama administration. It is reportedly trying to undermine negotiations between the Netanyahu government and Fatah. The Obama administration is earnestly seeking to initiate them.
 
According to an unnamed eyewitness interviewed by Israel Radio, during a July 8 meeting between Kadima Council Chairman and former vice premier Haim Ramon, and Fatah chief negotiator Saeb Erekat, Ramon urged Erekat to tell Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas to reject the Netanyahu government's offer for direct negotiations towards a peace deal.
 
Ramon allegedly claimed to speak for President Shimon Peres and warned Erekat that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu will not give the Palestinians what they demand. In light of this, Ramon urged Fatah to reject Netanyahu's offers to meet.
 
The implication was clear. If the Palestinians wait out this government, a Kadima-led leftist government will happily give them what they want: Israel on a platter.

    Latma's "Crime & Punishment"
  • In this week's Tribal Update brought to you by Latma, the Hebrew language media satire site I run, we feature "MK Aziz Abdul Messit" who gives us the rap about how Israel's Arab community operates in the chasm between the Israeli Supreme Court and the Israeli people. 
     
    We also feature an inside look at how Israel's brave reporters will stop at nothing to bring viewers all the blood and guts they can dream up.
     
    We are planning to expand Latma's operations into English but to do so we need to raise the money to finance our initiative.
