Why can’t this stuff appear as regularly in our press as in the Israeli press? Because we’re greenhorns, in the lobby corral. Amazing piece at Yedioth Ahronoth by Sever Plocker saying that Israel has passed the point of no return with its colonization of the West Bank:
The evacuation of 8,000 Jewish settlers from the Gaza Strip and their absorption in Israel cost taxpayers NIS 10 billion. Those interested in turning back time and evacuating Israelis from the areas beyond the 1967 borders would have to invest NIS 600 billion [about $140 billion] for that end. An unreal figure…
Half a million Jews beyond the Green Line constitute the point of no return. The talk about a “construction freeze” or “construction suspicion” at certain settlements are a joke and an insurance policy for the leaders – in Israel, in Palestine, and in the world – who know deep in their hearts that the decision had been made.
What we have here is two peoples that cannot be divided: A mixture of Jews and Palestinians that cannot be separated. It’s too late.
