UPDATED: A WEEK AFTER FATAH-HAMAS PEACE DEAL, USA ENVOY QUITS

U.S. officials say the Obama administration’s special Mideast peace envoy, George Mitchell, is resigning after more than two largely fruitless years of trying to press Israel and the Palestinians into negotiations.

AND ER, UM... IT'S COINCIDENTALLY JUST A WEEK OR SO AFTER FATAH SIGNED A DEAL WITH HAMAS - EFFECTIVELY ENDING ANY POSSIBILITY OF ANY DEAL.

EITHER MITCHELL - WHO IS LEBANESE - THINKS THIS DEAL MAKES PEACE IMPOSSIBLE AND JOB IS POINTLESS - OR HE LIKES THE FATAH-HAMAS DEAL, AND MAYBE EVEN HELPED EGYPT'S NEW OVERLORDS BROKER IT.

IT MATTERS NOT WHICH.

THE FATAH-HAMAS DEAL MAKES THE PEACE PROCESS A SHAM OF A MOCKERY OF A TRAVESTY.

THE ONLY WAY TO GET PEACE IN THE HOLY LAND IS TO GET REGIME CHANGE IN TEHRAN.

THAT WILL LEAD TO POSITIVE CHANGE IN SYRIA AND LEBANON AND GAZA.

DON'T FORGET: IRAN USED TO BE AGREAT ALLY OF THE USA AND ISRAEL AND EGYPT.

THEY CAN BE AGAIN - IF THEY ARE LIBERATED FROM THE MULLAH TYRANTS.

UPDATE:

THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION IS PLAYING DOWN THIS RESIGNATION AND CLAIMING THAT MITCHELL ALWAYS INTENDED TO ONLY STAY 2 YEARS.

THIS IS BULLSHIT.

HOW DO I KNOW? SIMPLE: IF THAT WAS THE CASE THEN THEY'D HAVE A REPLACEMENT READY - AND THEY DON'T. THEY'RE NAMING MITCHELL'S DEPUTY - DAVID HALE - AS TEMPORARY SPECIAL ENVOY.

MITCHELL WANTS OUT NOW, BEFORE THE THIRD INTIFADA BEGINS.

AND APPARENTLY HIS TIMING WS PERFECT: THE THRD INTIFADA HAS JUST BEGUN!
