Condoleezza Rice says it’s time for Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, Islamic Jihad, and Hamas to have that Palestinian state they so richly deserve: Rice: Now is time for Palestinian state.
RAMALLAH, West Bank - The time has come for establishing a Palestinian state and it’s in the interest of the U.S. to do so, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Monday in one of her most forceful statements yet on the issue.
The comments from Rice, after a meeting with Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, suggested that the Bush administration is determined to try to bridge the wide gaps between Israel and the Palestinians ahead of a U.S.-hosted Mideast conference.
The gathering is expected to take place next month, though a date has not been announced. Moderate Arab countries, whose participation is widely viewed as critical, have not committed to attending.
Standing next to Abbas, Rice defined Palestinian statehood as a U.S. interest. “Frankly, it’s time for the establishment of a Palestinian state,” Rice said.
This comes as Mahmoud Abbas and his cronies are demanding full control of Jerusalem and the Temple Mount, the “right of return,” and the release of all terrorists from Israeli jails. And it comes even as the Palestinians continue trying to commit mass murder.
There’s a word for this, and it isn’t “sanity.”
