Middle East Quartet meets in Moscow

By DPA,
Moscow : Leaders of the so-called Middle East Quartet of the UN, US, European Union and Russia are meeting in Moscow Friday for talks on the way forward in the impasse on the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.
However the talks come against a backdrop of strained US-Israeli relations after the announcement of new Jewish settlement building in East Jerusalem, and overnight Israeli bombing raids against targets in Gaza.
On Thursday, the EU's foreign relations chief, Catherine Ashton, visited the Gaza Strip, ahead of the Moscow talks. Her visit coincided with militant rocket attack on Israel launched from the salient, which killed a Thai kibbutz worker.
Friday's one-day talks involve Tony Blair, the Quartet's envoy to the Middle East, as well as Ban Ki-moon, the UN secretary-general, US Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, and Russia's Foreign Minister, Sergei Lavrov.
"Thank you for coming, let us now discuss proposals," Lavrov told the opening of the meeting, according to interfax newsagency.
Late Thursday Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu informed Washington he was prepared to make fresh confidence-building measures, although details of these have not been made public.
However George Mitchell, US special envoy to the Middle East, will now return to the region this weekend after postponing a visit last week because of a diplomatic feud over Israel's plans to build new housing units.
The announcement of Mitchell's visit came after Netanyahu telephoned Clinton Thursday to discuss "specific actions that might be taken to improve the atmosphere for progress toward peace," US State Department spokesman P.J. Crowley said in a statement.
Mitchell postponed the visit in the wake of the Israeli announcement on new housing, which came during a visit to Israel last week by US Vice President Joe Biden.

Did Hitler have the final victory?
Netanyahu is a twister, pretender, deceiver, a liar, a charlatan, a cheat, a crook, a double-dealer, a hypocrite, a trickster and a racist bigger than Hitler. He has no decency and no principles. He will twist and turn. He is a poisonous green snake in the tall grass. He assumes that he has a direct line to God to give instructions on what to do.
But the most beautiful event in the world history of the past 65 years is that, the US will oblige Netanyahu and his Zionist friends as the US has been doing for the past 65 years.
Why? Because the Jews control 80% the US's economy and the US politicians receive huge favours and bribes and they will (including the President)never be elected without the support of the friends of Israel.
Is there any end to this oppression, injustice, iniquity and wrong? No, not for the next 50 years or until God Almighty decides to put His scheme into operation to show that justice is not totally dead in the world. After all Hitler's success was temporal too.
Let us wait for a Sallahuddin Ayubi
The Palestinians say, after all the crusaders held on to Palestine for 140 years, and the Zionists have done for 63 years, and let us wait for 77 years for a Saladin Ayyubi to be born to bring a real "French Revolution" in the Arab world.
After all 77 years is not too long a period in the 5000 year cherished history of Palestine.
How long can the American Trojan Horse called Zionism can survive? How long did the Roman Empire last? How long did the Persian Empire rule the world? Where is Mongolia now from where Chenghiskhan Khan conquered the world? Is might is always right? Do arms and weapons decide the destiny of the oppressed people? Does Not God Exist? Is it impossible for justice to prevail?
Have not nations been destroyed by their own weight and arrogance or by immeasurable natural calamities? How long did the Western colonialism last in Asia, Africa and central America?
One True Almighty God warns through the revelation ( The Quran) as follows: “HOW MANY A GENERATIONS WE HAVE DESTROYED BEFORE THEM, WHO WERE MORE IMPOSING IN RESPECT OF GEAR AND OUTWARD SEEMING” Chapter 19 (Mary) Verse 74. “WE DESTROYED MEN MIGHTIER THAN THESE IN PROWESS” Chapter 43: Verse 8
LET POLITICIANS GO AROUND THE WORLD AND SEE FOR THEMSELVES, HOW MANY HUGE, EMPIRES THAT HAD BEEN MORE POWERFUL AND MIGHTIER ( than the present day America) HAD BEEN DESTROYED IN THE PAST BY GOD FOR THEIR ARROGANCE AND INTRASIGENCE. Will it take too long for God Almighty to bring UK and USA to rabbles if they persisted in their arrogance and injustice. Are they greater than the Roman Empire or Pharaohs of Egypt? Where are they now?. Greedy politicians hardly learn lessons from history.
Israelis deceive as usual
This shows the beauty and deceit of relations between the US and Israel. Israel can go on committing the most obnoxious crimes, break the international law, practise apartheid, continue to occupy Palestine land and build new settlements.
The US will once in a while give the lip service asking Israel to have restraints, but covertly, it will allow Israel to continue its aggressive and violent policies.
The world fails to understand that unless the US makes Israel behave decently in international affairs, the so called war on terror is not going to be won by the US.
As a matter of fact after the 9/11 attacks and American war on terror started, there had been tens of thousands of innocent people killed by terrorist attacks both the US and Israeli State Organised terror( in Gaza) and the terror of revenge and retaliatory attacks by the affected victims and other lunatic fringes.
Have the Americans contained the terror, may be on their soils but not internationally
Quartet or No-Quartet it is not going to work
The article represents the anger and frustration of Muslims and non-Muslim sympathisers of the victimised Palestinians. What is suggested, is not going to happen in our life time, because all those Arab countries and their rulers are American puppets who are more interested in saving their unethical crowns rather than fighting for a just cause. Muslim disunity has made it possible for Israel to dispossess the Palestinians, for the US to invade Iraq, and for the US to rule much of Arabia through puppets.
For example in exchange for faithful service, Egypt receives US$1.5 billion a year from Washington which helps the oppressive and undemocratic Munafiq Mubaruk to bribe his opposition who would rather have the filthy American money rather than supporting the penniless Palestinians. So Egypt inhumanly co-operates with Israel and the US in the blockade of Gaza.
So Muslims betray their own kind for US Dollars. Muslims should keep praying hard to God Almighty, let God bring a huge Iranian type revolution in the entire region of Middle East leading to a mini world war which will engulf one and all, I belong to Sunnath jamaat hanfi mazhhab, and I am not an Iranian Shiah, wallahi.
Quartet or No-quartet is not going to work. These are all just absolute EYEWASH
