Recognising Israel to follow birth of Paleo state, sez Musharraf
Move along, folks. Nothing new to see here.

ISLAMABAD: President Pervez Musharraf has said that Pakistan will not recognise Israel and establish trade links with it until an independent state of Palestine does not come into existence.
"
 does not [sic] come into existence." So, in other words, your stance is indistinguishable from that of every other Middle Eastern sh!thole that demands Israel abandon its self-defense as a pre-condition to any installation of progressive policy in innumerable terrorist regimes. Shuckey darn! I owe Rantburg such a debt of gratitude for teaching me how to observe this exact sort of philosophic prestidigitation!
He said this while talking to American Jewish Congress (AJC) Chairman Jack Rosen who called on him on Friday. Jack Rosen told the president he had visited quake stricken areas and was saddened by the massive devastation caused by the quake. He informed the president that the AJC was raising funds to help quake victims. The president thanked Mr Rosen and said Pakistan needed billions of dollars for reconstruction and rehabilitation of quake victims.
And this is the naked face of evil. It’s quite all right to send Pakistan untold “billions of dollars” in quake relief, but Musharraf refuses to recognize Israel until their most dire enemy is ensconced without the least challenge to their psychotic anti-Semitic stance.
Pakistan was not opposed to Israel, he said adding “we want lasting peace and stability in the Middle East. Israel should evacuate other occupied territories and help establish an independent Palestine.”
To paraphrase; Israel must surrender all defensively captured territory without the least reciprocity from those who demand complete and total destruction of the Jewish State.
The president condemned terrorist activities in Palestine saying that an end to terrorism violence could lead to a solution to the problem. He urged the American Jewish Congress to exert pressure on Israel to move towards the establishment of an independent Palestinian state.
Without the least mention of how Palestine must abandon all “terrorist activities” in turn.

Musharraf really needs infinite intimate contact with a clue bat. I fully realize that he is spewing for public consumption. Yet, the incredible hypocrisy of him strutting forth with hat in hand to demand BILLIONS WORTH OF international relief for his infestation of terrorist academies is simply ridiculous.

Let us not revel in the fact that Pakistan’s utterly corrupt enforcement of civil engineering codes directly contributed to this massive and avoidable slaughter. Yet, how can any of us not exult in the self-ordained predestination that so many of Pakistan’s madrasahs met with in nature’s most recent cataclysm?
