On Eve Of Peace Summit, Fatah Promises To Launch Hundreds Of Rockets Into Israel (Plus: US Diplomacy Doing Great!)

We're not sure this is the face of a peacemaker

Bold:

The Aqsa Martyrs Brigades threatened Thursday morning to fire hundreds of rockets at Israel. Sderot and western Negev residents on their way to work were greeted by nine Kassams landing in and around the city.

We needed a punchline for this post, so we typed "state department annapolis israel" into Google News to see what's been going on with the peace process in the last 12 hours. You'll be glad to know that Condi's back in the Middle East and the US is planning to dump an absurd amount of money on Fatah. More money than the $410 million they already announced. Super.
