  • Can Israel Survive 4 Another 60 years?

    You forget nother ''categories'' of Jewish people who don't care...or wish they didn't have to..... Israel is, after all, a FOREIGN COUNTRY, if one does not live there. I know, I know....everyone in the USA has an ''old country''....so why not be proud of Israel being your ''old country'' if you are Jewish? One good reason is, there is no other ...

  • History calls for a One-State Solution

    I support what is often referred to as the One-State Solution (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binational_solution), whereby Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza become a unified secular state, with everybody equal citizens under law. It is not currently a popular solution, but I think that it is the only one that will produce stability in the long ...

  • Thank God for Jimmy Carter

    You're right that disengagement is a tool just as engagement is. I guess you could say that the Bush administration used ''disengagement'' as their entire approach to the Israeli-Palestinian problem for the first six and a half years of their administration when they didn't devote a single day to helping bring peace to the Middle East. For them, ...

  • Weak logic...

    Boycott has not done much. To say the Russian boycott of the '84 games was a ''success'' seems like a bit of a stretch, and to say that the American boycott in '80 was a success has more weight, but is still pretty damn thin. Whether or not it weakened Soviet propaganda efforts significantly is debatable, but what is not debatable is that the ...

  • Re: How many newspapers published the holocaust cartoons?

    HAROON: I still say that both Israelis and Palestinians are victims of international policies. Well, ok, i'll agree with that. HAROON: All I meant was that Israelis should be the ones who really, from experience, would feel what the Palestinians are enduring and then would stop it period. and, that too.

  • Re: More spin from gzuckler

    Scoot'r-d:Sorry, gzuckler, even that initial UN declaration was distorted and misused by Israel. As written there would be a common ground Jeruselum, an Arab state and a Jewish state. But alas that did not happen then or since. Of course there was war after that resolution. But when war was over in 1949 did Israel return lands meant to go to the ...

  • Re: Bush's trip

    Larry: I'm going to play Prez for this post. There's no way I'm going to visit Israel/Palestine for show. There's no upside for me if all I do is show up. But I have a plan. My plan is to lay it out for them. For Abbas: ''You figure out a border you can live with. You can have some of Israel, but you're going to have to give up on the ...

  • Krebs Can't Shake Imperial Thinking

    It seems like so many pundits, thinkers, politicans, and leaders in America just can't shake the mindset that America must advance its interests abroad through conniving double talk, backstabbing hypocricy, and cutthroat manicheanism. Its like the abuser that beats his kids, realizes its wrong, but resorts back to beating them because it just ...

  • What will PA do with the money?

    It's not quantum mechanics, really. The top guys will most likely steal 20-30% of the money and send it to some European banks. Another 30-40% will most likely be payed to the local thugs and used to solidify the PA control, fund the war against Israel, and keep a bunch of murderers and their families happy. The rest will be payed to the ...
