One of the more surreal parts of Middle East peacemaking is the dramatic distance between Palestinian behavior and Palestinian expectations. Like ill-raised children, the Palestinians expect to be rewarded not in spite of but on account of their (murderous) temper tantrums. Two JPost updates from this morning:
8:56am: Palestinians fire mortars at western Negev
9:15am: PA minister: We’ll demand that Israel releases all Palestinian prisoners
The even more surreal part? An overwhelming majority of the world also sees nothing strange about this.
