There’s good news coming out of Ramallah for a change: Thanks to some occasionally successful efforts by the “Palestinian Authority” to control the security situation, and some real interest on the part of Bibi Netanyahu in establishing an “economic peace” with the Arab denizens of Judea and Samaria, the International Monetary Fund reluctantly reports-naturally it qualifies its optimistic forecast with criticisms of Israel-that economic conditions in the “Palestinian” territory in the West Bank have begun to improve. Amazingly enough, this didn’t require an Israeli settlement freeze. Can we expect to hear some positive remarks on the subject from the State Department spokesman? Or is Hillary too busy at the moment issuing more scary sanction warnings to Iran to take note? Update: Hillary is actually too busy batting her lashes at the murderous Iranian thugocracy right now to take note.
