<div><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">When you  have a  genius in the office of a country’s Foreign Minister you might  expect an  analysis of a situation that makes sense. BUT, when you have a  fascist moron in  that position, just the opposite is to be expected…..  just read the following  to see what I mean.</span></div>

<h1><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;"><span style="color:#808000;font-size:large;">Lieberman: Mideast uprisings show the Arab world is weakening</span> </span></h1>
<h2><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">Lieberman  denied claim that the Israel-Palestinian  conflict is a reason for the  unrest of late in the Arab world, blaming it  instead on internal  unrest. </span></h2>

<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">Israel’s  foreign minister said on Monday that the  root of the uprisings seen in  the Middle East today was a result of internal  unrest, adding that the  “Arab world is weakening.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">“Whoever  thinks that the Palestinian-Israeli  conflict is part of the problems in  the Middle East is trying to escape  reality,” Avigdor Lieberman said  in an event for European diplomats held at the  Knesset on Monday.</span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">The foreign  minister went on to say that the “big  picture of the Middle East shows  that major points of contention stem from  challenges and confrontations  within Islamic society.” </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">“The Arab world is becoming increasingly weakened,”  Lieberman added. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">Lieberman was  speaking in reference to the unrest  that has wracked the Arab world in  the past few weeks, from the ousting of the  government in Tunisia to  the recent uprising in Egypt. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">“At the end of  the day, it is clear to everyone,  even to the Palestinian Authority,  that the greatest danger they are facing is  not Zionism, but rather  Hamas and Jihad,” Lieberman said. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">Many of the  protesters in Egypt, and in the rest of  the Arab world have condemned  President Mubarak’s and Egypt’s peaceful  relationship with Israel. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">The foreign  minister also spoke about Israel’s  settlement building in the West  Bank, denying the often heard argument that they  are an obstacle to  peace. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">He used the  peace agreements with Jordan and Egypt  as testimony that withdrawal  from occupied territories is not necessarily a  prerequisite for peace. </span></p>
<p><span style="font-family:Verdana;font-size:medium;">Direct peace  talks between Israel and the  Palestinians were suspended a month after  they were launched in Washington,  after the Palestinians boycotted  talks over Israel’s refusal to extend a  10-month freeze on settlement  construction. </span></p>
