![Misconceptions about Israel's war in Gaza [Letter]](/pb/resources/images/tinygif.gif?v=286)
-
- I am a Jewish American and have always considered myself a Zionist. As someone born shortly after World War II, I know how great a difference the founding of Israel, an independent Jewish state embodying Jewish values, made for all Jews everywhere. We all walked a little taller, felt a little safer. The disappearance of Israel would be a disaster of incalculable proportions, not just for the Israelis, but for all of us. Israel is still fighting yesterday's war, however. It cannot win this way,
- Hamas' tactic is not only to turn the world against Israel, but against all Jews. One need only look at the disturbing proliferation of anti-Semitic riots across Europe to see that this tactic is succeeding. Israel is expected to tolerate what no state on Earth would.
- One man's "just war" is another's ethnic cleansing. Do the Palestinians have no natural right to defend themselves from the onslaught of Israel's military, from 50 years of occupation, death, poverty and despair? What is to happen to them when Israel's "just war" is over?
- Arabs will never accept Israel's right to exist
- Peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians break down
- Neither U.S. activism in the case of the Israeli-Palestinian peace process and Iran, nor U.S. inaction in the case of Syria, has yet to bring the results hoped for by the Obama Administration. While U.S. policy in the Middle East has not yet broken down, except, perhaps in the case of Syria; the U.S. remains a long way from the breakthrough in the region that the Obama Administration had hoped for.
- University of Md. officials are right to resist calls to boycott Israeli academics and institutions
- Ariel Sharon, the daring Israeli general who as a field commander and prime minister became one of the most influential and controversial leaders in the Middle East, died Saturday. He was 85.
-
- Few former failed presidential nominees have found a meaningful calling, but John Kerry may be finding his niche as secretary of state.
-
- Renewed Israeli-Palestinian talks are likely to be a long, drawn-out affair that leave the prospects for peace uncertain for years to come
- President Obama asks more from Israel than he does from its enemies
- KAL pins blame for lack of peace in Middle East on the wrong people
- Obama's trip to Israel shows that the window on the two-state solution has not yet closed.
- Future of peace could ride on what coalition the Israeli prime minister opts to build
- Will the Arabs ever accept Israel's right to exist?
- U.N. recognition of a Palestinian state has upped the pressure on Israel to negotiate
-
- Israel has done much to promote peace despite the actions of terrorists
- If she wants it, Hillary Clinton would be the prohibitive favorite for the 2016 Democratic nomination
- The results of the Arab Spring make military action in Gaza far riskier than in the past.
- Is Mitt Romney right that President Obama has thrown Israel under the bus?
- The Sun is naive in its hope that unity between Hamas and the Palestinian Authority will lead to moderation and any realistic hope for peace.
- True peace between Israel and the Palestinians isn't possible unless Fatah and Hamas reconcile, but Israel won't negotiate if they do.
- For Israel, breaking off all contact with the Palestinian Authority over its attempt to reconcile with Hamas could represent a missed opportunity for peace
- Israel's prisoner swap with Hamas will raise the risk of more hostage-taking and violence while doing little to revive Mideast peace talks
- A Sun article describing Palestinian frustration at the peace process ignores the Palestinian Authority's repeated rejection of peace offers.
- The U.S. must veto U.N. recognition of an independent Palestinian state
- If worded right, Palestinian declaration may improve chances for peace
- Newspaper's understanding of Middle East muddled at best
