Can’t Obama play this game?

Leave it to president Obama to time the signing of a waver that has been regularly signed for three Lustrums:

President Obama signed a waiver Thursday that will allow the Palestinian Liberation Organization to retain its office in Washington D.C.

(15 years if you never saw Rooster Cogburn) for the moment when it can cause maximum embarrassment or offense:

The waiver was released at about the same time that Obama was having a Passover Seder at the White House with friends and members of his staff.

Then again maybe the point wasn’t so much to insult Jews as it was for the Arabs to see the Jews insulted.

Remind me again what was the percentage of Jews who voted for this president? 75%? You get what you pay for. What is that quote that Moses said about choices?

Or maybe it is just another Obamateurism

Never attribute to malice what can be attributed to stupidity.

Oh and speaking of those brave Palestinians

Israellycool reports that one of their brave freedom fighters took an axe to a teenage boy killing him and wounding a 7 year old boy.

Yup brave warriors them.

Awaiting world condemnation of the act, particularly by peace groups on campus in the US in 293,948,023,023,193,203,203,111,290… 293,948,023,023,193,203,203,111,289… 293,948,023,023,193,203,203,111,288…

Meanwhile in Israel…

If you haven’t been following things over there don’t worry Israellycool has, some news of note;

Israel is told by the arabs accept their “peace” plan or else. Ha

Oh and speaking of laughs it looks like since the end of the Israeli counter offensive in Gaza in response to rockets the Arabs have rearmed Hamas:

According to Diskin, since the end of the military operation in early 2009, 22 tons of explosives, 45 tons of raw materials for the production of weapons, dozens of rockets, hundreds of mortar shells and dozens of antitank and antiaircraft missiles were smuggled into the Strip.

The shock is just too much for me.

Meanwhile he links to a Sunday Times report on their strike on an Iranian rocket convoy for Hamas. The really funny part is here.

Khartoum initially accused America of being behind the attacks. “We contacted the Americans and they categorically denied they were involved,” said Sudan’s foreign ministry spokesman, Ali al-Sadig.

Yeah that has all the signs of the Obama White House I’m sure glad I wasn’t drinking when I read it.

Well I feel safer

What will happen when Gitmo closes? Where will the terrorists go? Where will we find them? Apparently all we have to do is look out the window:

Holder told reporters at the Justice Department that the administration’s review, made on a case-by-case basis, would determine whether the prisoners need to be put on trial or whether they can be released.

“For those who are in that second category, who can be released, there are a variety of options that we have. Among them is the possibility that we could release them into this country,” he said.

After Gateway pundit’s jaw is picked up from the ground he reminds us:

Honestly, what could possibly go wrong?

Stop the ACLU has video with apologies to Mr. Rogers.

Hey I hear there is one house in Bill Ayers neighborhood that isn’t getting much use now.

Update: The WSJ weighs in, along with Hotair.

Update 2: Captain Ed:

I find myself growing nostalgic for the days when American government kept Americans safe, instead of the terrorists.
