abbas goes to new york

watching mahmoud abbas terrorize the united states and israel at the united nations is a thing of sublime beauty.  for an essentially powerless people to be able to threaten the fortunes of the both the world's largest empire as well as the local terrorist state shows the ultimate futility of violence and occupation.  while israel's sins are well known, this stunt by the palestinian leadership threatens to expose the vile hypocrisy of the united states once and for all toward freedom and self-determination for the majority of the arab world.  after this, no one in the arab world should trust the ideals of the united states again.
