Israeli News Briefs

  • Israel has agreed to arm Fatah to the teeth, while Fatah continues to lie through their teeth. I’m inclined to believe the Popular Resistance Committees on this one.
  • A tale of two wages: The Israeli minimum wage is to be raised by $1000 within a year. The palestinian minimum wage is to be raised by thousands of dollars for each Kassam rocket fired at Israel, with an additional bonus depending on the number of Israelis killed or wounded.
  • My, aren’t we busy: Supporting the Christian Crusader attack against Islamists in Somalia, and murdering a former Russian agent. It’s a wonder we have time for anything else.
  • Ynet describes last night’s soccer game between an Israeli/Palestinian “Peace Team” and a team of Spanish all-stars with the headline Peace Game: Only winners. Given that Shimon Peres was involved, I wouldn’t go that far.
