Secretary of State Rice has been to Israel 6 times in this round of peace making. This latest visit she is lambasting Israeli building in Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria. While she has criticized the building in the past this time it has really created a anger in the Israeli electorate that had not been seen in a while. As one news article indicated quoting a Israeli MK this was a spit in the face of Israel. One has to wonder is why Israel is being criticized in building in areas supposedly being kepted in a final agreement if it was to be adopted, and why is Israel being attacked for building in her own capital. No one is attacking the United States for building in Washington, or New York. This is after years of broken promises about moving the United States embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem even if it was West Jerusalem which is suppose to be considered Israel proper. This raises the question if the United States is really committed to Israel's security as a Jewish state.
This past week Hamas attacked the border area around North Gaza with 60 rockets and a truck bomb during one day of fighting and the United States said nothing. Secretary of State Rice never said a thing more did she ever visit the families down in Sederot. I don't even think she ever spoke about the legitimate problems and request of Israel all she cares about are the Palestinians. She has turned into another Jimmy Carter with her hostility toward Israel and the Jewish people. I would make a challenge to Secretary of State Rice if you are truly a mediator spend one day and night in Sederot.
Almost a year ago I outlined ways to force Hamas to resigned and to moderate the people of Gaza as well as stop the rockets. Israel was to cut off completely Gaza from Israel no water no electricity, no diesel no nothing any supplies food etc was to go through Egypt. This would have put more pressure to force Gaza to deal with Egypt. A blockade is OK but you need to have it as a total blockade. This was not done Israel kept sending supplies providing electricity etc. This was a recipe for failure. The next thing Israel should have to stop the rockets was to invade and setup a buffer zone this would have prevented attacks of truck bombs and infiltrations. Now a tragedy is ready to happen and the Olmert, the United States and the Kadima government will be the blame.
New elections have to happen and a new Pro Israel government needs to be in place and a new attitude towards pressure from the United States needs to be done.

Condolence Reich has been nothing but a pain in the US's #1 true ally's side since she had taken office. In one of her many speeches that she made comparing the "poor, pitiful Palestinians" to the oppressed Black Slaves of the US is the first of a long line of proof that she is UNFIT to serve as our Secretary of State.
But, unless you are NOT good at poker, a buddy of the Bush's and a cigar smoker, you will not fit well in Bush's administration.
I have lost all respect for the office of the Presidency and the administration when Carter was in power and I was not even of voting age. It's been an office of ill-repute since Carter - and Rice has destroyed any thin thread of integrity the State office had is now gone.
To side with terrorists is a sign of Sedition/Treason! To me, people like Rice is a traitor not only to our Ally Israel but to the office of which she represents!
Where's the people with courage and a backbone?!!!! Clone Teddy Roosevelt!!!!
