ANOTHER SIGN OBAMA WILL START FAVORING THE ARABS: MAY APPOINT GEORGE MITCHELL SPECIAL ENVOY

NYTIMES:

Other Middle East specialists said Sunday that if Mr. Mitchell was named to the job, he would be seen by both sides as a tougher but more balanced negotiator than recent envoys, which could make some Israelis nervous.

Mr. Mitchell has Lebanese as well as Irish roots: his father, Joseph Kilroy, was an orphan adopted by a Lebanese family whose Arabic name had been anglicized to Mitchell, and Mr. Mitchell was raised a Maronite Catholic by his Lebanese mother.

The appointment of Mr. Mitchell would be a strong suggestion “that Obama is going to free himself of the exclusive relationship that we’ve had with the Israelis,” said Aaron David Miller, a public policy analyst at the Woodrow Wilson International Center.

“This is the clearest indication to me that they’re trying to inject more balance into the Israeli-U.S. relationship,” he said.

• WHEN YOU TREAT PALESTINIAN TERRORISTS THE SAME AS YOU TREAT THE DEMOCRATIC/PLURALISTIC ISRAELIS - OUR LONGTIME ALLY --- AND ONE OF OUR BEST ALLIES, TO BOOT, THEN YOUR NOT MORE BALANCED; YOU'RE MORE IMMORAL AND IMBALANCED!

• REMEMBER: "EVEN-HANDEDNESS" IS SCOWCROFTIAN CODE FOR "SCREW THE JEWS".

• THE ISRAELIS KNOW THIS; THIS IS WHY THEY COUNTER-ATTACKED GAZA NOW - BEFORE OBAMA IS SWORN IN.

• OBAMA AND THE LEFT - TYPIFIED BY THE ANTISEMITIC BILL MOYERS - WILL SCREW ISRAEL THE FIRST CHANCE THEY GET.
