Good Grief, How Stupid Are They?

The Palestinians crack me up. They're worried that we're working the Palestinians over to appease Israel about the Iranians the nuclear accord.

Really?

A senior Palestinian official said the United States was asking Palestinians to make security concessions in peace talks with Israel in order to silence the Jewish state's criticism of world power diplomacy over Iran's nuclear program. ...

U.S. acquiescence to Israel's security demands was aimed at "silencing the Israelis over the deal with Iran and achieving a fake progress in the Palestinian-Israeli track at our expense", he said.

Wow. That's world class stupid.

I think the Palestinians are kind of missing the point. Do they really think the presence of a Palestinian state matters to Iran?

In what world would the nutball Iranian mullahs hesitate even a moment to nuke Israel, and then speak really nicely about all the involuntary martyrs the mostly Sunni Arab Palestinians donated to the cause of ridding the world of Israel?

That's acceptable collateral damage if the Iranians ever heard of it. They'll fight Israel to the last Arab if they have to.

If the Palestinians were smart--as opposed to being the most self destructive people on the entire planet--they'd be lobbying Israel to bomb Iran to destroy Iran's nuclear program.

But that's not how it will play out, is it?
