Analysis: Netanyahu, Obama, Abu Mazen Summit: By Moshe Feiglin

What does Abu Mazen want?
Abu Mazen, (who holds a Soviet doctorate for his Holocaust denial thesis)          wants to destroy Israel - just like every other Jew-hater in the world.          Like every reasonable Moslem Arab who lives in Dar el Islam (a.k.a. the          Middle East) that is polluted by the Zionist entity, Abu Mazen would also          be pleased to carry on with the murders, rapes and mutilations that we all          remember from the Arab riots of 1929, 1936, Israel's War of Independence          - and from every opportunity that the Arabs in the Land of Israel have had          to express their unique talents.

But in the meantime, Abu Mazen's immediate goal is to perpetuate the current          situation. At the present, he needs Israel to prevent the Hamas from taking          over Ramallah and throwing him off a local rooftop. He also has to prevent          the establishment of a Palestinian state - at any price. Why? Because in          addition to all the honor and authority that he enjoys even now as "head          of state", he would actually have to take responsibility for the Arabs of          Judea and Samaria. Abu Mazen is not a pushover. He knows that as soon as          there is "peace" he will interest no one. What will he do then? Take care          of the sewage problem in Bir Zait?

Sound confusing? Just wait for the rest. For now, just remember that Abu          Mazen needs to talk peace and to present Israel as intransigent.

What does Obama want?

The places in which Obama grew up and was educated, the mentors and events          that, as per his own testimony, shaped his personality and world view -          do not leave room for sweet speculation. Obama is a dangerously radical          leftist who willingly subjugates himself to the most radical Islam.

Obama wants to appease all the dictators of the world - first and foremost,          of the Moslem world - at Israel's expense. Anti-Semitism has always been          subtly present in American governments. But the common values shared by          the US and Israel had always afforded the two countries a basis for cooperation.          Obama is past all that. As opposed to the previous US presidents of this          generation, Obama sees no justification for Israel's very existence.

In the meantime, what is important to Obama is to talk peace and to appease          the Arabs by presenting Israel as intransigent.

What does Netanyahu want?
This is the hardest question. The analysts in Israel can't seem to decide          if Netanyahu would like to retreat but cannot, or if he can retreat but          does not want to. As we are not mind-readers, we will try to get to the          root of the matter.

What Netanyahu wants is what the State of Israel has wanted since it was          established and even before that. A state wants to be normal, a country          like any other country, a nation like any other nation. To accomplish that,          Netanyahu needs to keep up normal relations with the US and the western          world. The paradox is that the more that Israel surrenders its strategic          and tangible assets (its land, settlements, army checkpoints) as well as          its principles (recognition of our very right to a Jewish state) the more          that the nations distance themselves from her. The more that we surrender          our unique identity and destiny, the more that we insist that we seek only          peace - the more that we become an international pariah.

But Netanyahu has nowhere to run. The concepts of holiness, of Israel's          uniqueness and of Jewish rectification of the world are completely foreign          to him. All that he can do is to continue to play the peace game and to          hedge his bets that Abu Mazen will back down first.

In summary:
Abu Mazen wants to perpetuate the current situation.
Obama wants to appease Islam.
Netanyahu wants the US and the West to stop pressuring Israel.

The only one of the three who will get exactly what he wants is, of course,          Abu Mazen.
