The Israel rules

America's support of the Gaza attack proves once again that our mythical image of Israel has blinded us to its faults -- a myopia with devastating consequences for both countries.

Imagine This

Since we all seem to be in a wistful mood, lets imagine the following.

Imagine if the Arab contributors to the Palestinians demanded the destruction of the refugee camps and earmarked that the billions that were given(over the past sixty years) be used to build homes and schools instead of buying arms.

Imagine if Yasser Arafat cared more for his people than his Paris bank account.

Imagine if there were not a group of people amongst the Palestinians who are intractable and will never accept Israel as a neighbor.

If you can imagine all that,you might be able to imagine peace in the region.

But, alas, it would only be meanderings of a mind that has been altered by some substance.
