So the latest Middle East "peace" effort is in tatters. What a surprise.

As Ghandi said (it's on my bumper sticker): "There is no road to peace. Peace is the road."

I loved (not) Bush's response. He said there are people in the Middle East who just "hate" peace. Just like after September 11, the reason the terrrsts did it is coz they "hate" freedom. You know, the way he explains these complex issues, it all becomes so simple to understand. He seems like a very nice man.

White House spokesman Ari Fleischer makes it even simpler: "The issue is Hamas. The terrorists are Hamas. They are the enemies to peace, in the President's judgment."

Ah, the President's judgement. You gotta love this "president's" judgement. First Osama bin Laden was the problem, then it was Saddam, now it is Hamas. Or maybe Kim Jong. Or maybe Darth Vader. Or some other easily detested "bad guy".

Errr.... wasn't it Israel who broke the (very) recent, very public "Peace Deal" with an outrageous homicidal helicopter gunship attack which killed innocent civilians? Who are the real terrorists? I do not condone violence or murder in any way. Neither do I condone hypocrisy.
