  In The News: Violence In The West Bank Serves As A Warning
  As the investigation into the terror attack in Psagot, which targeted a nine-year-old girl, continues, it's worth zooming out and looking at the wider situation in the West Bank, where recent weeks have seen an unmistakable increase in violent attacks.
  ...figures released by the Shin Bet [Israel Security Agency] in its monthly report for September point to an unmistakable upsurge in Palestinian attacks on Israeli civilian and military targets across the West Bank and east Jerusalem.
  In September, security forces logged 129 attacks in total, compared to 93 in August. The upsurge included the murdersof two IDF soldiers last month, as well as 72 firebombings, four explosive attacks, and four instances of small arms fire.
  The bottom line is that things are heating up in the sector. Hamas and Islamic Jihad are attempting to rebuild terrorist infrastructures and organize terror attacks against Israel from the West Bank on a regular basis.
  In July, the PA's official television channel broadcast a program showing two Palestinian girls reading poetry. "Oh, you who murdered Allah's pious prophets. Oh, you who were brought up on spilling blood. You have been condemned to humiliation and hardship. Oh Sons of Zion, oh most evil among creations .Oh barbaric monkeys, wretched pigs," one of the girls said.
  'Peace Process' Is Exploding
  Two weeks ago Palestinian-affairs expert Khaled Abu Toameh reported that "a connection seems to exist" between the two phenomena, with Palestinian groups—including the armed wing of Abbas's own Fatah movement—vowing to escalate terror and stop the talks. It was already known that all the Palestinian organizations, from the Islamist Hamas to the relatively secular Fatah itself, fiercely opposed the negotiations.With Israel facing strategic threats, particularly from Iran to the east but also from the Syrian imbroglio and from Hizballah to the north, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu wants to get along with Washington as well as possible and will not easily take such steps. Israel, having entered the talks, may also be in a damned-if-we-do, damned-if-we-don't position, with 58% of Palestinians predicting a Third Intifada if the talks "fail."
  Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu delivered an aggressive, seemingly petulant speech Sunday night at Bar-Ilan University. Between Holocaust references and criticism of Palestinian leaders past and present, he demanded that the Palestinian Authority recognize not only the unassailable fact of Israel's existence, but the historic right of the Jews to have their own sovereign state in this land.
  Whether Netanyahu, deep in his heart, wants a peace deal with the Palestinians is a question beyond the ken of any commentator – and is perhaps unknown to Netanyahu himself.
  But his demand for Palestinian recognition of the Jewishness of Israel is no cheap tactic. It is the key to understanding his theory of the conflict, his view as to why the Oslo process 20 years ago failed, and his distrust of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas in the new round of talks.
  When Israeli hawks complain about PA incitement, doves are fond of replying, "You make peace with enemies."
  But Netanyahu has a different view, not about PA incitement, but about the nature of peacemaking.
  When a Western leader once sought to make peace with his enemy, he found himself undermined politically and transformed into a laughingstock of history. That leader was Neville Chamberlain – and the enemy was Adolf Hitler. When another leader sought to unite a fractured society riven by racial discord, his efforts transformed him into a revered figure and his peacemaking efforts continue to heal and unify long after his death. That leader was Martin Luther King, and his enemy was the white racism that had tormented American blacks through centuries of slavery and inequality.
  The difference between Chamberlain's failure and King's success lay, in part, in their constituents' view of the enemy. Soon after Munich, Britons came to view Hitler as implacably evil, and Chamberlain's peacemaking efforts as accommodation with that unspeakable evil. (That this view of Hitler was correct is beside the point; the issue here is psychological. )
  On the other hand, King did not call on American blacks to make peace with Ku Klux Klan murderers or the racist governors of southern states.
  Just as the Iran-backed Lebanese Hizballah sent thousands of fighting men into Syria on the sly to fight for the Assad regime in the winter of 2012, so it is now pulling them back in the same furtive fashion in small, inconspicuous bands.DEBKAfile's Middle East sources report that 1,500 Hizballah fighters are home out of 3,500 still awaiting repatriation last month. By early November, they are all expected to be out of Syria.

  It has been hinted that Saudi is forming a quiet ally with Israel due to their military capability and the recent moves on the part of USA/Iran talks...as stated in second article
  "In reality, the "Arab-Israeli conflict" is now on the back burner, and Sunni Arab states mainly see Israel as a tacit ally against Iran"
  Prime Minister B Netanyahu made hinted reference in his UN speech. Which now brings me to my questions: is Saudi the nation of Ishmael?
  We know that Russia and Saudi have engaged in exchanged threats which is really over economics at the end... Is Saudi a going to be a sheep nation at the end or a goat?
  I wish I had more details to add but I too have been concerned about the role that SA is playing with many nations lately. I just mentioned this to some dear friends yesterday. It seems like they are the possible puppeteers and tugging on many leaders.
  If you do searches on them you can see they are working with many nations. I have been wondering if they haven't been pitting one against the other to rise as the King of the South, so to speak. Time will tell but I say they are worth watching since they have what many nations want.
  Thanks GG..Saudi is definitely an under current showing up from many sources...if we remain to watch this play out. Which I am hoping we will not!
  I had a strange dream today that Israel had been attacked.
  Now it was only a dream, not a vision. So im not a prophet :)
  I was on my way home at night and i seen in the distance across the river, Jerusalem getting attacked from every angle. There were hundreds of rockets being fired into the city. It was the most frightening thing i had ever seen.
  I couldn't get over the amount of rockets.
  But the weird thing was that i could see Jerusalem across the river and me in Ireland.
  It must be have been in my head from reading the articles lately. But it was still strange.
  Stocks are down again, but not by much. It seems that bulls have their bids right under this market.
