Finally! The L.A. Times Prints "The News!"

Written by Arlene Peck

Wow! The Los Angeles Times amazingly printed an article about the Palestinians and all about how "Law and Order Breaks Down in Nablus'' and amazingly enough, it didn't show the usual file photos of little Palestinians urchins throwing stones at the big bad Israeli tanks.

In fact, for once the paper covered a story that the mayor of Nablus was quoted about how the once-thriving Palestinian business hub has been turned into a gun-crazy den of lawlessness. Gee! What a surprise! Gaza? Mubarak is already disavowing any connection and who could blame him? I was in El Arish during the Camp David settlement and Sadat wouldn't take take it back when everything was up for grabs. Even then he was calling Gaza a den of snakes and Israel was offering prime real estate and oil wells?

According to this bastion of Arab political correctness, the Los Angeles Times, gangs rule the streets of Nablus, the West Bank's largest city, shooting rivals, strong-arming merchants, and carrying out beatings and kidnappings. Residents have no faith in the toothless police force, which shows little stomach for stopping the disorder. The courts are a joke. Hmm, sounds as though the Palestinian security authority is once again turning guns against its own people, as it has so often in the past.

I was violently against the arming of these dangerous men when Shimon Peres and the rest of those foolish men supplied the arms and gave Arafat and his thugs an army in the first place.

Interestingly, a year ago I met with Dr. Daniel Pipes (http://www.danielpipes.org/blog/175) and he told me that we were winning the war. I didn't believe him then, but I do now. The Palestinian Authority has lost control. The next step is Civil War between different terrorists factions for the spoils of power. As the internal struggles increase in power throughout the West Bank and Gaza, it's only a matter of time before all hell breaks loose and the Palestinians realize that their violence is counterproductive.

That evil old man, Arafat, may be fading away but his damage has been done. When I traveled into Gaza years ago, I saw what a cesspool it was then but, it was nothing to what it has become. I traveled throughout the maze of humanity in the Casbah of the old city section and thought then it should razed and the terrorist who filled it should be moved out.

Otherwise, the future was clear. There are too many people with nothing to do but look for new ways to kill. Thugs walk through the shops, steal what they want, and order the merchants to close during the funerals of their fellow terrorists. There is no one to stop them. Order is a thing of the past.

Fatah is thriving, and it's obvious that a pull-out would leave terrorists groups like Hamas, Hizullah, and Arafat's favorite, Al Aqusa martyr brigade, in charge.

Yet, with all of this, Sharon seems to be plunging ahead listening to dignitaries who have never had the good will of Israel in their sights. According to the Los Angeles Times, when speaking of the U.S. officials who are working with Sharon. ''They want to ensure that Israel coordinates any moves with the Palestinians Authority."

And I feel ever so much safer now that Yasser Arafat was quoted as saying, ''Any withdrawal should result from face-to-face talks under the peace plan, which has stalled in recent months.'' He continued: ''The Palestinian Authority will maintain law and order in areas that Israel vacates.'' My, my! Don't you feel ever so much better about Israel's security? I find it especially ironic in light of the most recent bombing in Ashdod where Hamas and the Al Aqsa Martyrs' Brigades, militants with links to Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat's Fatah party, claimed joint responsibility for the attack.

I notice though that the evening news is getting a little more strident concerning the plans of the Islamic fundamentalist. The realization is beginning to sink in that the end of Europe as we know it, seems to be on the horizon. It has been caused by the fundamental transformation in the political and economic institutions of the European Union and might have something to do with the feelings that are beginning to surface.

France has been totally taken over and the character of the country will be probably be gone within the next decade. Couldn't have happened to nicer people but, are these the ones the United States or Israel should be listening to?

Our public doesn't seem to be so concerned with the ''plight of the poor Palestinians'' after watching the carnage left over from commuter trains in Spain and the likes which has been done by their savage cousins, who think killing are the answers for everything. People finally, are just beginning to realize that they are not immune. The Islamic fundamentalist plan is in place and the Arab promise to come after the Sunday ''infidentals'' is already in progress.

There is an element of world anger beginning to voice its concern and support and there are many ''good Christians'' out there who have joined the fight. We are becoming united in our grief and anger.

The time is coming for Israel to make its move. As usual, it has been easy for the world to be benevolent when it was only the Jews who were being slaughtered. People had a tendency to be far more politically correct. However, the new reality of terrorism has finally hit and hit hard.

The millions in Spain who marched in a blinding rainstorm knew that they too now had their ''Ground Zero'' because of the same savage Islamic fundamentalist. It’s time to do something. I'll wager that their open door policies and political correct mantras might be slamming shut. Although their recent vote caving into the Moslem-friendly terrorist and voting the government which supported them into power makes me wonder if their march wasn’t to protest the USA and it’s policies instead.

Not too many, I believe, are taking our President Bush too seriously when he rambles on about what a peaceful culture Israel's neighbors are. Especially since you can count on a handful out of the 1.3 billion they represent, who have come out to dispute these evil goals in their dysfunctional culture.

It is becoming more obvious; I believe that to win the war on terror drastic measures must be taken. We Americans are idiots if in the United States we continue to keep our borders open and be the welcoming beacon of light for these forces of dark. The European Union tried that and it is now in serious trouble.

Our president and those in the EU are "concerned" with the security fence. They continue to push for the "Roadmap to Hell." Who cares? Israel must do what it has to do.
