Support by Britain for Israel is only "unequivocal" if it includes an understanding of the necessity for Israel to destroy or severely damage Iran's nuclear project -- if, that is, the American government, stuck to Tarbaby Iraq and the little tarbaby  (but getting bigger by the minute, my how those little ones do grow up so fast!) of Afghanistan, refuses to assume its own solemn responsibilities, and Israel, not for the first time, does the West's most difficult jobs for it. And for doing that job, Israel should steel itself, and expect not thanks or at least not immediate thanks, but only indignation, condemnation, outrage, fury.

And one would feel better if Gordon Brown, if his predecessor, if his successor -- watch out for William Hague, the shadow minister for foreign affairs deeply unsympathetic to Israel --  would all stop talking about and offering aid to the Gazan Arabs and the "West Bank" Arabs who are the shock troops of the Arab and Muslim Jihad against Israel, and cut out all the crap about the "Palestinian people." Just stop using the phrase. After a while, many others will get the idea, take the hint stop using the phrase, and reverse the propaganda victories of the Arabs, and see the Jihad against Israel as a Jihad, and not be fooled by the "national liberation struggle" of the "tiny people" -- those "Palestinians" -- about whom we have heard so very much, and so incessantly, with such diabolical deliberateness, for so very long. Time to call a halt to the whole "Palestinian people" business.

Now, repeat after me: there are Kurds and Arabs in Iraq. There are Arabs and Berbers in Algeria and Morocco. There are Arabs who live in the Khuzistan province of Iran, but no one talks endlessly about the "Khuzistanian people," do they? And there are the Gazan Arabs. There are the "West Bank" Arabs. There are the  Arabs who live within the 1949 Armistice Lines. Describe them, accurately, as such.

There, that wasn't so hard to do, was it?
