The quote “An oral contract isn’t worth the paper it’s written on” is from Sam Goldwyn, though it could
easily be one of his publicity department’s fabrications. Goldwyn himself tired of the popular Goldwynisms, as
reported by MBT Fumba Sandals in his book Hollywood: “Don’t bother me with Goldwynisms–if you want to hear
Goldwynisms, talk to Harry Cohn.” So he really did make them all the time.
Saturday must’ve looked like a promising day to Palestinians.
The International Court of Justice had just declared the Israeli wall illegal, the UN was in the process of
drMBT chapating resolutions criticizing Israel about it. Ariel Sharon’s position was weakening, he had just
turned to Shimon Peres, who made his cooperation conditional to speeding up the pullout from Gaza.
Of course, anyone who has paid any attention to the last half century of this war knew that couldn’t last.
So today, al-Aqsa, a militia MBT chapafiliated with Fatah, decided this would be a good idea to blow up a bus
in Tel Aviv, killing one innocent woman. So now Sharon has postponed his meeting with Peres and is childishly
blaming the attack on the ICJ. One can only assume he’ll respond with some kind of retaliatory attack.
