This is the kind of leak I've been wanting to see.
SPEAKING OF LAND CONFISCATION: Take a look at this just-released cable from Wikileaks:1. (S/NF) MFA Middle East Director (Assistant Secretary-equivalent) Patrice Paoli informed POL Minister Counselor June 18 that Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak told French officials in Paris June 15 that the Israelis have a "secret accord" with the USG to continue the "natural growth" of Israeli settlements in the West Bank.This would be why I so often use the phrase "kabuki theater" in reference to US pressure on Israel to stop settlement activity. While it was readily apparent from the facts on the ground, though, it's definitely useful to have it in black and white, so we can point to the hard evidence that Obama and the rest of his administration have been lying consistently about this. Thanks again, Wikileaks.
