…At the ADL conference yesterday in Washington, Dennis Ross was reported to have said in his address, “It is important that the Palestinians see that peace is a possibility. They need to see that negotiations can not only take place, but they can produce. For that to happen, each side needs to show that it understands the other’s needs and realities including the Palestinians providing assurances over Israel’s very real security needs. The Palestinians need to see that they can have an independent state that’s contiguous and viable.”
You all know code, right? Contiguous and viable means that Israel will be cut in half by a corridor between Gaza and the south Hebron hills. Otherwise the Old-New State of Ancient Philistia would not be viable. But what I really enjoyed here was once again Dennis Ross sounding like a marriage counselor, not a statesman. He said, to repeat, “Each side needs to show it understands the other’s needs.” But how about Jewish rights, Dennis? Not that I blame him as a primary culprit for this wretched state of affairs in which Israel is mute in the matter of its rights but vocal only about its security concerns. The real guilty party is the people of Israel whose democratically-elected leaders don’t have the vocabulary of Jewish rights in their minds and on their lips. They are secular Zionists and that movement was not about saving the Jewish people but transforming them into a normal people, to borrow from Peres; with a place among the nations, to borrow from Bibi. If Israelis don’t frame our predicament in terms of our rights, not just the rights of the Ancient Ones that of course do pre-date the Great Flood, according to the Palestinian Narrative… if Israel doesn’t demand its rights, it’s hard to become overly annoyed with Dennis Ross the marriage counselor who thinks the hostility here, the homicidal hostility of the Arabs is connected to both sides not seeing the needs of the other. In this JPost piece by their Hilary Leila Krieger in Washington, she also cited Dr. Martin Indyk who also was there at this conference and on a panel discussion, and what he had to say was as useless as anything he has ever said. What a curse these peace processors are on Israel with their insufferably uninformed, shallow acquaintance with the Middle East and why Israel has had not a day of peace since its declaration of independence 63 years ago. They haven’t got a clue. They think it is about the need for Israelis and Ancient Ones to be sensitive to the other’s needs, which can be learned via confidence-building measures. The reason there is no peace is that much of mankind like Barack Obama oppose the Jewish Narrative found in the Bible which is all about the promise of this land to this people. And they don’t like that. They have their own version of the way things should be. To their way of thinking, justice means the sons of Ishmael, not Yitzhak, are the rightful owners of this land… |
