http://english.pnn.ps/index.php/national/984-palestinian-authority-threatens-to-reevaluate-its-agreements-with-israel
These "Agreements" with Israel do not need to be reevaluated. Israel has never fully committed to them and has only paid lip service to the process of reaching an agreement with the Palestinians. The illegal Israeli settlements continue to be built, new sections of the occupied territories are grabbed for new settlements and outpost, the evil inhuman blockade of Gaza continues, the terrorism of the IOF continue in Palestinian towns and villages, crops and water systems are destroyed by settlers protected by the IOF, homes and children's playgrounds are demolished in East Jerusalem more arrests are made under the Administrative Detention provisions. No. The Agreements do not need to be reevaluated. They need to be ripped up into thousands of pieces and thrown to the wind.

Israel will not last for ever in its present form.

More hand wringing and
jumping up and down to apologise to the Israeli's for making a
comment on a matter of public interest. As it happens, I think that
she was right. Israel will not last for ever in its present form. The
sooner politicians and in many cases the media get rid of their
collective guilty conscience with regard to Israel and recognise the
reality of what is happening in the Middle East, the sooner Israel
will recognise that they are wrong in their actions and attitude. The
world does not owe them a living.Their treatment of Palestinians and
their barbaric blockade of Gaza is criminal. Israel will not last for
ever in its present form and the sooner it changes the better.

Harriet, you are wrong.
http://www.labour.org.uk/olympics-are-fantastically-important-for-london-and-country,2012-02-29
No Harriet, you are wrong. The Olympics are important only to business interests, corporate hospitality industry and the media.The largest part of the people in this country will only see the extravaganza, the excesses and waste. They will see the costs, rising everyday, being funded from government coffers while more cuts in services, pensions, salaries and jobs are imposed, as the "Because We can't afford it" argument is trotted out of Whitehall. At the same time, rising prices will rise even faster as real incomes fall. We, the British people will be paying for this Olympic madness for years as every other host nation has found to their long term costs.

Olympics Protests?
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/politics/nick-clegg/9112676/Nick-Clegg-urges-Ed-Miliband-to-rein-in-Len-McCluskey-over-Olympics-threat.html
Clegg. Hypocrite, liar and unprincipled opportunist. Warsi. Hysterical outpourings (again) from a person who would be better employed getting a job (if she could find one) in the real world, like school assistant, care worker or even lollipop lady. Both from privileged backgrounds, both very well off thank you very much, both who have never had to worry about heat or eat, both who never had to consider how they will get on when reaching retirement age, both representing no one except their own class and interests. Don't lecture me on the rights and wrongs of public protest when you are spending £Billions on an event which will only benefit business interests, and the elite few. The rest of us will be paying for this extravaganza for years. When working people are subjected to the excesses you and your ConDem coalition inflict on us every day, do not bleat if we fight back with any weapon which we may have. A message for D. Milliband. support working people and agree with protest.

The price of petrol
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/oilprices/9093934/Oil-price-hits-eight-month-high-on-Iran-sanctions.html
Could someone, preferably from the oil companies, please explain the following mystery. On Sunday, there was a stock of petrol in the tanks at filling stations across the country. The Oil refineries in the UK were perhaps almost full of imported oil. There were many oil tankers on the high seas, bound for destinations all over the world and in particular Europe. All of the oil in these locations was brought and paid for some days if not weeks previously at the price level then in existence. At the same time, (Sunday) the price at the pumps,at least in the filling stations round here, was about £1.379 per litre. Also on Sunday, Iran announced that it was placing an oil Embargo on France and the UK, in addition to the measures against 6 other European countries announced last Friday. HEY PRESTO !! overnight the price of petrol at our local filling stations jumps to £1399 per litre !! I have a knowledge of Economics after 4 years of study, and the only model that these facts can fit is the one marked "Profiteering Greed".
