PA: Israel Agrees to Destroy Jewish Towns, Starting in November
Source: Arutz  

11 September 2007 – The Palestinian Authority's Maan news agency has published a copy, in Hebrew, of PM Olmert's agreement to expel tens of thousands of Jews and replace them with a Palestinian state.

The report states that Israel has agreed to begin destroying Jewish towns in Judea and Samaria immediately following the US-sponsored international summit this coming November.

The PA claims that the document's eight points represent the principles of agreement between Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Fatah leader Mahmoud Abbas, in anticipation of the upcoming Middle East summit.

The document begins by stating that Israel and the PA are to immediately enter a process "that will lead to the formation of two states, Israel and Palestine, side by side," and are "to reach understandings of the type detailed below."  The eight points upon which Olmert and Abbas undertake to agree are the following:

1. Israel will end the occupation of the West Bank within an agreed-upon time period. The retreat and the evacuation of the settlements will occur gradually and in several stages. Each area that is evacuated will be transferred to the Palestinian Authority, which will instill law and order there.  The existence of a regime in Gaza that is willing to be part of the peace process will enable Israel to view Gaza and the West Bank as one political entity.

2. An unarmed Palestinian state will be established, whose permanent borders will be based on the pre-1967 borders. The precise border will reflect security, demographic and humanitarian needs.  An exchange of territory will be enabled on a 1:1 basis, to preserve settlement blocs in Israeli hands and to guarantee Palestinian contiguity and economic development.

3. There will be two capitals in Jerusalem, that of Israel and that of Palestine, and they will be sovereign over the Jewish and Arab neighborhoods, respectively.  The two municipalities will cooperate for the enhancement of the quality of life of all the residents.

4. Special arrangements will be emplaced to preserve free access to all the holy sites of the various religions.  A special administration will be established to maintain the two nations' bonds with the holy sites in the Old City of Jerusalem.

5. Palestine will be recognized as the national home of the Palestinian nation, and Israel will be recognized as the national home of the Jewish nation.

6. A fair and agreed solution will be found for the problem of the Palestinian refugees, with consideration and recognition of the suffering that was caused to them, and with the understanding that the implementation of national self-definition will be the main aspect of the solution.

7. The two sides will declare their willingness to end the conflict and to act to increase public support for the agreement as much as possible.  The two sides will act with all their force, together and separately, against any manifestation of violence and terrorism that is directed from the area of either state to the other.

8. The two sides see this agreement as a significant manifestation of the principles of the Arab League's peace initiative, and call upon the members of the League to take operative steps to bring about its full implementation.  Similarly, the sides call upon the entities represented in the Quartet and international community to guarantee and help, in various ways, to promote and actualize this agreement.  

Comments:  As much as we don’t like this scenario we knew that this was coming. This November will be one of the most dangerous and saddest times since Israel became a nation in 19948. Jews will expel Jews again and we all know what happened in Gaza the last time. This time the number of Jews being expelled will be thousands more. Israel may have to forfeit the Temple Mount in this deal but there are hundreds of thousands (millions) of Jews in Israel and abroad that will not let the Rock go without making a stand. Whatever happens with this deal I suspect that this could be the catalyst that will eventually lead to the rebuilding of the Jewish third Temple. It has to be built prior to the mid point of the 70^th week of Daniel and all indications point to the world fast approaching that time period. Judea and Samaria are being handed over to a terrorist organization that is bent on Israel’s destruction. This is the biblical heartland that is dear to all settlers and religious Jews. This is covenant land promised to the Jews by God and the government is giving it away. Is it any wonder that the bible tells us that this coming period will be known as Jacob’s trouble?

 

 

Jer 30:4 And these are the words that the LORD spake concerning Israel and concerning Judah.

 5 For thus saith the LORD; We have heard a voice of trembling, of fear, and not of peace.

 6 Ask ye now, and see whether a man doth travail with child? wherefore do I see every man with his hands on his loins, as a woman in travail, and all faces are turned into paleness?

 7 Alas! for that day is great, so that none is like it: it is even the time of Jacob's trouble; but he shall be saved out of it.

Syria complains to U.N. about Israeli airstrike
Source: CNN

 

11 September 2007 – Syria accused Israel of a "flagrant violation" of its obligations when it carried out an airstrike inside the country last week, according to a copy of a letter released Tuesday.

Syria called the incursion a "breach of airspace of the Syrian Arab Republic" and said "it is not the first time Israel has violated" Syrian airspace, the letter to U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon read. It also accused the international community of ignoring Israeli actions. Earlier, a U.N. spokeswoman said Syria had not requested a meeting of the Security Council. Meanwhile, France -- the current president of the Security Council -- said it had received no letter from Syria. Last week, Syria reported that its aircraft fired on Israeli "enemy aircraft" that flew into northern Syria early Thursday. The airstrike may have targeted weapons that were destined for Hezbollah militants, according to sources in the region and in the United States.

…

But the sources told CNN the military operation, which happened Wednesday into Thursday, may have also involved Israeli ground forces who directed the airstrike, which "left a big hole in the desert" in Syria. The strike may have targeted Hezbollah weapons coming into Syria or transiting through the country from Iran -- a pattern that, over the past three or four years, has occurred without any retaliation or other action taken against it -- the sources said. The Israeli government is very happy with the success of the operation, the sources said. Sources in the U.S. government and military confirmed to CNN's Barbara Starr that the airstrike did happen, and that they are happy to have Israel carry the message to both Syria and Iran that they can get in and out and strike when necessary.   
 

Comments:  This is a new development in the IAF flyover and now it looks like there was some kind of missile strike in Syria. No doubt this has irked the Syrian and Iranian leadership and it remains to be seen if there is any retaliation of some sort. The Israeli government is still keeping pretty quiet about the whole incident but it is interesting to note that Israeli ground forces may have directed this air strike. Israeli forces operating deep in Syrian territory is not much of a surprise since they have been known to do this before. The question now is…will Syria stay silent after this embarrassment.
