Fire in the Hole

Sorry to fire things back up again, but this one's important. I've tried to keep you abreast of the recent events in Israel, including the truce. Well, it was fun while it lasted.

Call me a hopeless pessimist, but if Mahmoud Abbas doesn't send in the "Palestinian" security forces to enforce the law, or at least dialogue with the Israelis about how best to deal with the issue, then it's all over, almost before it's begun.

It may be a rough couple of weeks (and months, and years) if this falls apart so soon.
