As'ad AbuKhalil, California State's Angry Arab, describes Gaza as a form of self-destruction by Israel:
To give you an idea what Israel
will have to deal with (and what will bring about the eradication of Zionism
from Palestine ), I asked a colleague in
Tunisia about
the public mood. She wrote me this (I cite anonymously–with her permission):
"Actually people are angry and there are many problems because here it is
forbidden to demonstrate for anything, so there were many struggles against
Police. But As'ad, people are angry against Jews and westerners. Sometimes their
anger has a racist connotation. I really think now that
Israel cannot
be acceptable one day in the region. Definitely, even among tolerants, like me,
we think that this State will be bannished, how I don't know.. But how would we
live with a warrior and savage State?"

Makes you wonder what will happen to the Arab consensus behind the Arab peace intiative… And of course the world Jewish consensus behind Zionism…
