Whose side is he on anyway?

Italian Prime Minister Silvio Berlusconi is here visiting, and it's been going quite well. Berlusconi condemned the Goldstone Report for trying to "incriminate Israel for its legitimate response" to Palestinian rocket attacks.

He announced that the World cannot accept a nuclear armed Iran, and called on the international community to pursue stronger sanctions against the terror regime. "
We cannot accept the nuclearization of a country whose leaders have explicitly expressed their desire to destroy Israel, have denied the Holocaust and delegitimized the Jewish state," Berlusconi said, in remarks translated into Hebrew simultaneously.

"We cannot make compromises," he said. "The path that must be taken is multilateral oversight, negotiations and sanctions" against Iran.
He called for Israel to be a member of the European Union (thanks, but no thanks - can you see us with our foreign policy run by Lady Catherine Ashton?).

He listened attentively as Deputy Prime Minister Sylvan Shalom asked him to get Iran's Revolutionary Guards declared a terror group.

And then he went to visit Abu Bluff and came up with this line:
"Whenever war takes the place of peace, whenever violence takes the place of reason, humanity disappears. The relationship between men that should always be kept intact disappears," Berlusconi said at a joint news conference with Abbas. "So just as it's right to cry for the victims of the Shoah, it's right to show pain for what happened in Gaza."
Yes, of course. The 'concentration camp' in Gaza is just like the ones in Poland, isn't it?


I guess while he was here, he was just saying what he thought we wanted to hear. I heard he does the same thing with 18-year old girls - he tells them what he thinks they want to hear.

There's a lesson here somewhere. I leave it to all of you to find it. In the meantime, I hope someone punches Berlusconi in the face again.

Whose side is he on, just guess. He speaks from both sides of his mouth. But when it comes to sucking up to the Palestinians even though he is lying through his teeth even when it makes Israel look bad, that is what he does best.

This is the problem we face. No head of state is going to abandon the Palestinian people and no head of state gives a darn how bad it makes Israel look in so doing.

This is why I say all the time, if world leaders would mean what they say when they utter the words never again or speak of our security as though it really mattered we would not be in this horrible situation right now.

Just imagine a world leader looking straight at Abbas and blaming him for the condition of his people. Just imagine a world leader looking straight at Abbas calling him a filthy terrorist leader with no intentions of peace except for the intention of driving Israel into the sea.

Will we be alive to see this, I say never.
