* Yesterday everyone was all like “Abbas gave his word that the Palestinians will stop firing rockets”. Today Elder is all like Abbas is a liar.
* Aide: Abbas ‘reassured’ BBC reporter in Gaza is still alive – see above.
* Bush reveals steps to pressure Sudan – they don’t involve military force, which means they’re exactly as effective as the army of magical goblins that we would deploy if elected Commander in Chief. Disgusting.
* EU poised to outlaw genocide denial – … as to genocide itself, they’re still consulting with UN allies (alternative, far more true punchline: that’s going to complicate things re Turkish ascension).
* Gates placates Israel on US’s planned arms sale to Saudis – he said that Russia would do it anyway, so it might as well be the US doing it. No joke – that was his argument. And we use “argument” loosely here. Also “joke”.
