"To recognize a Palestinian state today as we speak would be to recognize terrorism and it would be to recognize political legitimacy for an organization whose charter states to destroy the State of Israel," he said.

Yesterday Sammie the outside cat (by choice) came inside about 11AM and spent the day sleeping in front of one of the two window air conditioners. I expect she will be inside again today. During winter she comes in at night when it's 20⁰ or below.
