Bill Clinton is on a roll.
Last month:
Forget about all that talk of freezing settlements--he is already talking about the reaching the endpoint of the negotiations. Actually, it is not even clear that he is talking aboutnegotiating. Of course, Clinton was saying this to Egyptian businessmen from the American Chamber of Commerce in Egypt, but still--
For Clinton to say that the Arab Israel conflict is responsible for world terrorism is saying alot.
The website The Religion of Peace tracks global Islamic terrorism. According to its detailed list for 2009, there were Islamist terror attacks in 38 countries around the world: Afghanistan, Algeria, Bahrain, Bangladesh, Belgium, Canada, Chechnya, China, Dagestan, Egypt, Ethiopia, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Ingushetia, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Italy, Jordan, Lebanon, Mali, Mauritania, Nigeria, Pakistan, Palestinian Authority, Philippines, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Thailand, Turkey, UK, USA, Uzbekistan and Yemen.
These attacks totaled 9,157 deaths and 18,546 injured.
Here are the totals by country (view the spreadsheet online )

And it is in the power of Israel to put an end to most of this?
Last month:
Russian immigrants to Israel have emerged as a central obstacle to achieving a Middle East peace deal, according to former President Bill Clinton. He voiced fears that the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), which increasingly consists of soldiers hailing from this community, might not be fully willing to oppose Israeli settlers as a result.This month:
Former United States President Bill Clinton said Tuesday that forcing Israel to surrender Judea and Samaria to the American-backed Palestinian Authority would take away much of the motivation for terrorism around the world.Clinton is really going all out to push for the Mideast peace initiative that Hillary is spearheading.
He described the long-running Arab-Israeli conflict as the key problem in the region and said resolving it would have a knock on effect that could result in Syria ending its support for the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah and Iran turning back its controversial nuclear program.
"It will take about half the impetus in the whole world — not just the region, the whole world — for terror away"...

Will Syria then really give up its designs on Lebanon; will Iran actually give up its plans for dominance in the Middle East?
Does Bill Clinton really take jihadist threats of spreading Islam so lightly?
He must really be desperate to help Hillary with these peace talks if he is saying things like this.
Then again, he also knows how to please his audience.
My note: ... Clinton is merely saying what this entire Obama Administration has been implying for months - that is is Israel's fault for all the terrorism in the Middle East. If only Israel would give up her borders, more land and continue freezing what little land she has from Israeli Jews from building homes ... all would be well with the earth and in the Middle East. Is this the thinking of one with a "sound" mind, or one who actually can face reality? And yet, we have General Petraeus stating this months ago, then denying that he had said it, stating that his words were taken out of context, etc. and etc. .... So, now Clinton repeats what we've heard in the past, from the Obama administration. Will Clinton tomorrow say his words were taken out of context to another audience? This is like saying Israel was responsible for 9/11 and we all know the names and places the 9/11 hijackers came from ... they were all Arabs! When will the world and the West stop using Israel as a scapegoat for ALL the Islamic terrorism?! And one more thing, President Bush knew who America's enemies were after 9/11; once Obama removed any and all identification of the real terrorists, it now makes it easier to manipulate the media and anyone who will listen, to make them think "if only Israel would play nice with terrorists, the wold would be a safer place"! ..... Wake up and smell the roses, everyone - Bill Clinton needs to retire from the public and from politics!! Bee Sting
