Some people suggest that it should unilaterally annex Area C, but I do not know if that's truly the best scenario. Either way I would leave it up to the Knesset to make the right decision on final borders, if they would be so inclined, which I do not see either.<br /><br />All that I know for certain is that the Arab war against the Jews in the Middle East has been ongoing since they were relieved of dhimmitude. <br /><br />I just want it to end.Mike L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06450806807610560873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-6586577222338473682012-05-11T08:22:31.584-07:002012-05-11T08:22:31.584-07:00What is the point?

I agree...What is the point? Must there be a point?<br /><br />I agree that Israel should define the borders, but it would be better to have international recognition of them. It would serve as notice for a Palestinian state as well. Perhaps that is what Meridor meant.<br /><br />The intent of the Arabs is open and apparent, when it comes to a state. All of Israel is occupied land. This reality is improper to face by some people who prefer to draw wrong assumptions. Or mistake it as Islamophobia. It is cynical when done for partisan gain and , actually, serves to diminish Jewish self-determination as understood by most Israelis and Jews.oldschooltwentysixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15672887176887940797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-43982285367399901032012-05-10T19:01:35.683-07:002012-05-10T19:01:35.683-07:00Yes, but toward what end?

It may provide legitimacy on what exists if Israel declares boundaries and withdraws from the rest of the occupied territory.<br /><br />That is not to say that all Jews must leave. They would not be subject to Israeli sovereignty. I suppose that Israel could require they receive protection under law, but who knows if it could be implemented.<br /><br />Obama certainly made a poor move in this regard, but if not settlements then the Palestinians would have used something else as a vehicle to express their anti-Israel, anti-Jew intentions.oldschooltwentysixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15672887176887940797noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-30975611985464538672012-05-10T14:13:41.275-07:002012-05-10T14:13:41.275-07:00School, why do you think that Jews should cease bu...School, why do you think that Jews should cease building beyond the security barrier and the settlement blocs?<br /><br />Does it make a difference at this point?<br /><br />If Obama had not driven the final nail into the coffin of the peace process I might agree with you, but he did.<br /><br />So why should not Jews build in Judea?Mike L.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06450806807610560873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6579213173749170024.post-61805962190361041302012-05-10T13:17:17.919-07:002012-05-10T13:17:17.919-07:00There is no question that there is bigotry against...There is no question that there is bigotry against Jews in this particular.<br /><br />That said, like Deputy Prime Minister Dan Meridor, I think Israel should freeze all building beyond the security barrier and the settlement blocs.<br /><br />http://www.timesofisrael.com/deputy-pm-meridor-urges-building-freeze-beyond-security-barrier-and-settlement-blocs/<br /><br />Those that characterize all settlers seem to do so based on false assumptions.<br /><br />According to one researcher, American settlers <i>"were primarily political liberals in the United States, voted for the Democratic Party and have been active in 1960s radicalism in the United States, participating in the Civil Rights Movement and the struggle against the Vietnam War."</i><br /><br />One settler, Rabbi Shlomo Riskin, a native New Yorker who in 1983 co-founded the settlement of Efrat, concurred: <i>"It's certainly true in my case. I marched with Martin Luther King. I consider myself a liberal and I voted generally for Democrats."</i><br /><br />According to the researcher, many who moved to the settlements after the Six-Day War see what they're doing in Israel as an extension of their radicalism in the United States, in part as an expression of their own Jewish civil rights.<br /><br />http://www.haaretz.com/misc/article-print-page/the-american-settler-you-don-t-know-1.388640?trailingPath=2.169%2C2.212%2C2.214%2C<br /><br />The Haaretz article is worth the read.oldschooltwentysixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15672887176887940797noreply@blogger.com
