The Israeli leadership does not have a vision and have made gross mistakes over the last several decades. The Jews across the globe need to demand the Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu to performance based on restoring genuine security to Israel. Netanyahu and his friends believe in bully power that has not worked; to oppress, to crush and to teach a lesson to the Palestinians. Their way

This article reflects the understanding of much of the world on the origins of unrest and its product; terrorism particularly in the Muslim world. The American policy-makers simply do not want to see this; neither the Israeli leaders (not the public) want to acknowledge this.

  EMBARASSING PRESIDENTIAL DEBATE TONITE Rather than who has plans to bring lasting peace and prosperity to the World, Security to Israel and Justice to the Palestinians, the candidates will be vying for kissing Israel; who does the most. Who is bent on destruction and bombing others? Ultimately it amounts to screwing both Israelis and Americans. How long can they dupe the Israeli and

There is always going to be a small segment of population in every group who tends to be intolerant and unwilling to hear another point of view. Jimmy Carter has done more to secure Israel than any other president, yet when he talks about the problem, the right wingers hound him. The lobby and the right wing are the true detriment to peace and security of Israel. Good Israelis and a good Jewish

25 October 2011 Professor AlonBen-Meir.com The prisoner swap in which Hamas released Israeli captive Gilad Shalit in exchange for 1,027 Palestinian prisoners in Israeli prisons suggests that Israel and Hamas recognize each other's unmitigated reality and prerogatives. The deal was unquestionably motivated by mutually beneficial political calculations made on both sides, including a desire to

This may bring a whole new different outlook on the peace talks between the Israelis and the Palestinians. At least 70%-80% of the Palestinians are of ancient Hebrew descendent from Abraham.

A good paragraph to read, “But it had been the UN, which met to decide the fate of Palestine on 29 November 1947, which gave Israel its legitimacy, the Americans being the first to vote for its creation.

Perry is a major disappointement to me today. Has he used his own brain to see what is good for America,  good for Israel, good for Palestine and good for the world? I am not happy with his take on justice. He is fallen to the real enemies of Israel who want to keep Israel in anxieties for ever instead of finding freedom for them and justice for the Palestinians.  Shame on you Perry. Mike Ghouse

The writer in the following piece write, "Freedom and democracy will come to Palestine when someone can stand in the public square and proclaim, “I love Israel!” without being stoned to death."

UNITED NATIONS, Sept. 15 (Xinhua) -- UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said here Thursday that the fate of Palestinian aspirations for statehood or non-member observer statehood is in the hands of member states.

But these setbacks pale in comparison to the coming

On the eve of Prime Minister Netanyahu’s visit to Washington, more and more prominent Israelis are calling for recognizing a Palestinian state now and for negotiating with that state to achieve peace and security. They are calling it an “existential Israeli interest.”Today, they ran unprecedented ads in Israeli papers making their case, signed by 18 retired generals and 27 winners of the

Although the right wing Jewish and Palestinians may favor the two nation solution, it needs to be debated and all parties need to understand that, we cannot live in silos, eventually there will be larger federations in the Middle East of the likes of the European Union, a dream piped in by a few about the Subcontinent.

As a supporter of the security needs of Israel and justice to the Palestinians, it’s painful to see the destructive policies of the right-wingers bent on hurting the dreams of founding fathers of Israel; a place for Jews to live without apprehensions.  Justice to the Palestinians is the only thing that will bring real security and a life free of apprehension to the Jewish people.

Of course, loose cannons on the Palestinian side also have done the exact same thing, indeed they made cartoons teaching hate towards Jews.  Neither side cares about the future of Children.  If Israel claims to be a democracy and a responsibile state, they need to work on cleaning up their act.
