HOW TO ACHIEVE PEACE IN THE TROUBLED MIDDLE EAST

TO ALL AM ISRAEL

To achieve peace in the Middle East, all parties must be equally desirous of peace. This however, sadly, is not the case.

Sadly too, many well meaning people, including some Israelis, are prepared to practice wilful blindness hoping against hope that somehow land for peace is the answer. Not facing reality is the worst prescription for peace.

Reality Check:

• The Arab Nations possess between them 5.3 million square miles of territory.
• Israel, including Judea and Samaria, a mere 10.801 square miles, before Gaza was abandoned.
• Judea and Samaria provide a critical defence line. Without this defence line, Israel will not survive.
• The Arabs have invested a great deal of time – 35 years – and treasure since the Yom Kippur War (1973) in a propaganda war which demonizes and delegitimizes Israel throughout the world and in their own countries – through their mosques, their education system, the news media, their foreign policy – influencing the policies of oil dependant states and above all, at the U.N., as we are all too well aware.

It defies credulity that giving up Judea and Samaria – a relatively small area of land but critical to Israel’s defence – will convince the Arabs to make peace.

But, Judea and Samaria is critical – in the Arab war of stages – to defeat Israel!

Such is the reality, and wishful thinking will not change it.

The Arabs have no legal rights to Judea and Samaria, period.

Israel’s legal status over Eretz-Israel predates the current U.N. Resolution, calling for Israel to give up a vital part of its land to create a state for the fictitious “Palestinians”.

It is difficult to imagine that world leaders are unaware of all these facts.

In order to achieve genuine peace in the Middle East, the Arabs must want peace as much as Israel does. They must give up their propaganda war against Israel and the teaching of Jihad. Weakening Israel will lead to war, not peace! 

WE MUST STOP THIS DANGEROUS AND PERFIDIOUS HOAX WHICH COULD IMPERIL OUR VERY SURVIVAL IN THIS DANGEROUS REGION.

I agree that the Arabs are going to have to want peace just as much as Israel wants peace. Israel will declare war before they succumb to Hamas' demands for a cease fire agreement. The future of Israel will remain in the hands of their allies until agreements can be made to alleviate pressures made by the war on the home front.

Dear Drea,

We appreciate your comments we agree with most of what you wrote. Hamas' cease-fire “offerings” are not intended to end hostility, quite the contrary. They use the cease-fire to rebuild and re-arm!

As for our future – the future of our state must remain in our hands. We are grateful for American friendship and understanding. But allies often act in their own interest, their own understanding of the middle east conflict.

Here in this violent region there is no room for error.

Our people have too often paid dearly relying on friends and allies.

Our cause is just. We are fighting enemies who simply want to destroy us.

With the Almighty's help, we shall defend our people and our land.

"Shalom Achshav - MILCHAMA MACHAR !" should be our battle cry.
