#2 Relax Mikey, Jawh is hardly the first (or the last) US Sec. State to try to screw Israel---we have ways of coping.

#3 tl;dr: Even if the Israelis give them everything they want, the Paleos will walk away from the negotiations because they will never agree with the Juice on anything. And Kerry is still a chump.

#5 I thought a person had to have a victory first, before consideration on whether it is Pyrrhic or not.

Or is the bar so low, that a wink wink agreement to talk about things is considered spectacular victory?

This purse of cash Kerry dropped goes to fund intifada groups and their cousins and uncles, and is competition on the job market. This outside money bolsters and attracts the industry and its labor pool.

Those who think this money helps the paleos needs to understand you are spraying water on the garden and not picking the weeds.

Then there are the others who want this: building an airport - sft I've heard in a while, and it is fierce competition. Is there any doubt in the world that even if, if, a working airport was completed -at safety code- that within 5 years it will be unusable. And end up grafting/costing 2x the USA price of Murtha Airport.
