  • Is equality a 'nightmare' for liberal Zionists?

      In addition to what V said, the Arab League recently came out with a peace proposal that pretty much accepts Israel as long as it ends the occupation of Palestine, Syria's Golan Heights and southern Lebanon, a just solution to the Palestinian Refugee problem and accepts an independent and sovereign Palestinian State along the 1967 borders then the Arab league would consider the Arab-Israel conflict over and enter into a peace treaty and this would result in comprehensive peace for all states in the region and the normalization of relations with Israel. This peace plan was initially proposed in 2002 and remains on the table for Israel.

      Morocco, a constitutional democracy has good ties with Israel (long before it most Arab countries) and has very good relations with America dating back to its establishment when Morocco was the first country to offer them recognition. In any case, the US supplies aid and military intelligence.

      Whatever Egyptian media says about Israel, its president is very very pro-Israel even if its people are not. One should note that Egypt -after Israel- receives the largest aid and that does influence them.

      Most Arab governments may say they are not pro-Israel but when it comes to organizations like Hamas and Hezbollah, they are reluctant to condemn Israel's reaction even if they do eventually criticize Israel. The reason why they do not like Hamas and Hezbollah is not because of ideology (especially with Saudi Arabia) but the fear of armed militias attempting to overthrow what they consider an unjust rule.

      Richard, what happened to your statements about being a progressive an all? This is what you have to a child who has been horribly scarred from white phosphorous? I guess talk is cheap when it comes from you.

      Regardless of whether the Palestinians have Jewish roots or not, they have rights which should be respected.

      Looking at some of the comments, its hard to believe that by simply having Jewish blood within them, the Palestinians -or at least 85% of them- have the sympathy of a significant number of the commentators.

      In addition, considering that the land had initially been inhabited by the Caanites, the land could also be considered to have been occupied by Jews, God given or not. This is in reference to Richard Witty's comment.
