They'd really rather be killing Jews

A few weeks ago, I learned about this wonderful tool called a Google Alert that lets you put in a search term and sends you an email every time something goes up that uses your search term. The first Google Alert I made was "Alan Johnston" and I limited it to blogs.

Today, is Johnston's birthday and the posts have been coming fast and furious. As a result, I chanced upon a lefty blog in Paris today that I would likely not have found in a million years. The birthday message to Johnston included this little prayer for the 'Palestinians':

The Palestinians have recently done much to hurt their own cause, starting with Johnston's kidnapping, apparently by a splinter group. This week political infighting has made a mockery of a Palestinian unity government. Differences have escalated to the point that Fateh and Hamas factions are ambushing and killing each other in the streets. On Wednesday a group of journalists in a press building were under seige from sniper fire.

The insanity of Palestinians killing each other must stop. Turning on each other won't solve their problems, but create more. How can anyone help them if they won't help themselves? I pray they will come to their senses and work together to achieve their common goals.

Which common goals? Murdering Jews?
