(Jerusalem Post) Herb Keinon - After the arrest of the Awad cousins from Awarta for the brutal, blood-chilling murder of five members of the Fogel family in Itamar, one might ask whether Palestinian society has moved beyond the threshold needed to become a functioning society. True, PA President Mahmoud Abbas and Prime Minister Salam Fayyad unequivocally condemned the killings. But then Palestinian voices were heard claiming it couldn't be a Palestinian who killed the family. That degree of denial does not bode well for a functioning state. What is incumbent upon Palestinian society now - after having received various stamps of approval for statehood - is to finally start taking responsibility and owning up to the actions of its people. The "occupation" is the Palestinian justification for every atrocity - from sending women out as suicide bombers, to firing anti-tank missiles at school buses, to hacking a three-month-old baby to death. There have been a lot of occupied people throughout history, and they didn't go out and cut up four-year-old, cherub-faced boys. 2011-04-18 00:00:00Full Article
