Dear friends:For the record and to be precise, please note that Secretary Rice did not use the exact words "divided the Land of Israel." The article writers paraphrased her words which are actually quoted below in the same article. But we know that is actually what she meant.
Thanks to a reader friend in Israel who pointed this out to me.
Jim

US Supplies Fatah With Arms, Rice Decries "Occupation"
By Ezra HaLevi & Hana Levi Julian
The Fatah faction received a new shipment of arms Thursday as part of a Western aid package to bolster forces loyal to Mahmoud Abbas. Secretarty Rice promises a PLO state.
United States Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said Wednesday America could have no greater legacy than to have divided the Land of Israel and established a Palestinian state to end the "humiliation of occupation." Rice made the statements at a dinner marking the third anniversary of the American Task Force on Palestine.
"The Palestinian people deserve a better life, a life that is rooted in liberty, democracy, uncompromised by violence and terrorism, unburdened by corruption and misrule and forever free of the daily humiliation of occupation," Rice said. "I promise you my personal commitment to that goal."
"I believe there could be no greater legacy for America than to help bring into being a Palestinian state for people who have suffered too long, have been humiliated too long," Rice added.
"I know that sometimes, a Palestinian state living side by side in peace with Israel must seem like a very distant dream but I know too... that there are so many things that once seemed impossible that after they happened they simply seemed inevitable," she said.
Rice praised Mahmoud Abbas, who is hanging onto his position as Palestinian Authority chairman, for his moderation. Arutz-7 reported Tuesday that Abbas dismissed demands that Fatah recognize Israel - just one day before he told Rice that such recognition is a must.
_______________________________________Notes:
1. Secretary Rice is now using the Palestinian propaganda word "occupation" to refer to Israelis living on land God gave them.
2. The U.S. is not only insanely arming the terrorists -- again -- but purposely working to "divide" God's land, which invites God's judgment.
3. If I didn't believe in the rapture, I would head for the hills.
