What prevents peace?
From Arab perspective, Jewish sovereignty, self-determination are
anathema
Moshe Dann
For Arabs, Israel's "occupation" of Judea, Samaria (the West Bank) and
Gaza in 1967 and subsequent settlement is only part of the problem.
The real issue is Zionism and the establishment of the State of Israel
in 1948 as a Jewish state. No "peace plan" - even the most extreme
which requires Israel to withdraw from all territory conquered in 1967
- will solve the Arab-Muslim problem of allowing a nominally Jewish
state to exist in any form.
From the Arab perspective, therefore, there are two overlapping
"occupations:" one in 1948 and the other in 1967. Resolving one while
legitimizing the other is (for them) unacceptable. Jewish sovereignty
and self-determination – Zionism - are anathema.
That's why President Obama's "peace plan" won't work; it assumes that
Arabs are interested in accommodation. No matter what concessions
Israel makes, however, they will not be enough as long as Israel
itself remains in any form. Because Zionism, as the Arab and Muslim
world sees it, is racism, an evil that must be eradicated.
Focusing on eliminating settlements, therefore, is not the real issue.
Diplomatic and economic relations with Israel may be practical
necessities; that does not mean acceptance of Israel's right to exist
as the "Jewish national home."
Even if all the "outposts" are destroyed, what will be done with
300,000 Jews living in Judea and Samaria, and nearly the same number
living in neighborhoods of Jerusalem established after 1967?
And even if all of those Jews could be resettled within Israel's 1949
armistice lines, this would not resolve the issue of Israel's
existence as a state in which the dominant symbols, language and
culture are Jewish, which offers preference and assistance to Jewish
immigrants, and whose identity and purpose are linked to the Jewish
people.
Moreover, as most military and strategic experts have pointed out, a
return to the armistice lines of 1949 would severely reduce Israel
defensive capabilities.
Struggle not over dividing territory
Obama's "peace plan" does not deal with Arab claims for properties –
the bogus "right of return" - the result of losing a genocidal war
against Jews, supported by the armies of five Arab nations. Nor is
there mention of UNRWA, which has supported Arab claims, their
intransigence and hostility for 60 years.
Who will control and protect Jewish holy sites and archeological
sites? And who will ensure vital water supplies from mountain
aquifers?
Without a clear strategy and detailed planning, Obama's peace surge
will ignite the next explosion of Arab violence against Israel, with
added fuel from the Palestinian brigades trained and supplied by the
United States under General Keith Dayton. Advanced missiles and
weaponry in the hands of Hamas and Hezbollah, and support from Iran,
Libya and other Arab and Muslim countries, will place Israel on the
edge of a second Holocaust.
The struggle is not over dividing territory, but whether Israel
deserves to exist at all. The reason that issue is not on the table is
because no Arab leader has or will accept Israel's right to exist, or
even acknowledge basic facts of history, for example that there was a
Temple, or even a Jewish Commonwealth.
The emergence of Jew-hatred, especially in Europe, evident in the
recent Swedish blood libel against Israel, a fraction of the official
support given by EU countries to anti-Jewish causes in the form of
anti-Israel advocacy, indicates the depth of that hostility.
Characterizing IDF actions in self-defense, for example, in Gaza
against Hamas, in Lebanon against Hezbollah, or against Palestinian
terrorists as "war crimes" has become a legitimate way of demonizing
Jews-as-Israelis. Equating the Jewish star with the Nazi swastika and
portraying Israeli soldiers as neo-Nazis have become legitimate
expressions of opposition to Israel itself.
Linking Jewish settlements with Arab terrorism and incitement beggars
the difference between building homes and the slaughter of innocent
people.
Failure to understand what Arabs really want and what Israel can
afford to risk, compounded by an ideology based on simplistic
solutions cannot be the basis of sound realistic policy. It
contributes to the view that Israelis (Jews) are devils.
The next war will not be over settlements, or Jerusalem, or a second
Arab Palestinian state - of any kind. It has been and will continue to
be over Israel's right to exist altogether.

 From Arab perspective, Jewish sovereignty,
le colonie non c'entrano niente, a prescindere. Un dito nel culo e
tira, per favore
