Abbas: PA to turn to Hague even if US vetoes of UN bid
Published: 09.15.11, 00:26 / Israel News

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas hinted during an interview on Egyptian TV that a US veto of the PA's bid for UN recognition will not stop it from taking action in the international arena, including turning to the International Court of Justice. Abbas said that even if a nation is not a member of the international body, it "can take part in world institutions, including the international court, which is what Israel and the US don't want." Abbas urged all Arab nations to dedicate Friday, September 23 to the support of a Palestinian state. (Elior Levy)

But no surprise.

There's no such thing as "Palestine" so they can't do anything. Israel will probably annex Judea and Samaria putting it under Jewish rule and solving the problem right there. They need to kick the so called "Palestinians" out of the country. They are nothing but a fifth column.

Did I read right that Abbas has now had thoughts about not going the distance and will make his decision tomorrow?

Apparently yes, abbas will decide tomorrow the 16th sept. this also could be a red herring but will have to see.

I wonder how many people today will stand around the water cooler at work and discuss their favorite TV series or the upcoming football weekend completely oblivious to what's happening in the world.

I preached a message to my youth group last night called "Are you ready?" and provided a lot of scripture in light of current events. Some received the message loud and clear while others yawned and checked the clock.

Here at work, no one seems to even take notice of what is happening in the world. (And considering where I work and what I do, this is not only sad but shocking too).
