Enough Handouts, Aluf Benn

Excerpt;

Here’s an assignment for Tzipi Livni’s Foreign Ministry: to make sure that in the next five years, the CEOs of all the Fortune 500 companies, the 100 presidents of the most prestigious universities, the heads of the most important research institutions and key artists and writers visit Israel; and to ensure that they leave here with joint projects, research plans and plots for new novels. It is possible that they’ll need an encouraging word from their congressman to get them on their planes. But Israel has nothing to be ashamed of when it comes to what it has to offer America, especially when compared to its Arab neighbors.

This author remebers Chaim Ramon’s boast just after elections that Kadima will have a coalition gov’t in place by Pesach. Well fans, the Pesach Seder has come and gone and Olmert is still struggling. It’s not easy when all of the characters are as crooked as the day is long. Dishonesty, duplicity, lack of trustworthiness and integrity cuts both ways! MB read more
