  • {PDF EPUB} the Israeli Solution a One-State Plan for Peace in the Middle East by Caroline B
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} The Israeli Solution A One-State Plan for Peace in the Middle East by Caroline B. Glick The Israeli Solution: A One-State Plan for Peace in the Middle East by Caroline B. Glick. The endgame for Mahmoud Abbas is the destruction of Israel. Caroline Glick’s latest book, "The Israeli Solution, a One-State Plan for Peace in the Middle East", carefully explains the political, legal, demographic, and military position of Israel in the modern world. She corrects many faulty notions that are prevalent about Israel. The reader learns from her that Israel was not created as an emotional reaction by a world horrified by the Holocaust. Its legitimacy and destiny as a State is grounded in historical and political realities that antedate the Holocaust, and in the prayerful longings of the Jewish people to be restored to and to rule their own homeland after dispossession by the vengeful Romans 20 centuries ago. Although she does not place much emphasis on the visionary and incredibly determined work of Theodore Herzl and Chaim Weizman, their vision is foundational and cannot be separated from the existence of present-day Israel. Rather, she derives Israel’s right to exist primarily from three sources: the continued presence of Jews in the territory now called Israel for 2000 years, the Palestine Mandate to the British, and from the British after World War I, and U.N. Resolution 181 which established the state of Israel (as a Jewish state). With amazing logic and compelling detail, she depicts every phase and aspect of Israel’s struggle to come into existence and remain in existence from 1920 until the present.

Evidence of a convergence of Israel’s stra- tegic views with those of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Bahrain has accumulated as all displayed hostility to Iran’s regional ambitions and to United States President Barack Obama’s policies during the Arab Spring.

  • In Praise of the No-Solution Solution Eyal Lewin* Assistant Professor, Department of Political Science, Ariel University, Israel

Six prototypes of solution are identified: (a) no Jews; (b) one bi-national state; (c) two- state partition; (d) partial annexation partition; (e) one Jewish state; (f) no Arabs (meaning their transfer elsewhere). The groups of solutions form a model for mapping suggestions for conflict resolution. With this model any additional solution not mentioned here is bound to fall within one of the groups of suggestions for conflict resolution. The next stage of this study refers to the six prototypes and examines their ideological foundations and origins within Zionist thought and action; and, finally, the suggested model constructs the framework for an assessment of which geopolitical arrangement is most likely to form the most desirable form of settlement from an Israeli point of view. In its concluding stage, then, this paper evaluates the practicability of each peace-solution prototype and, since none of the prototypes prove to have any real probability, the idea of the non-solution solution is introduced and recommended.

  • Terrorists Are Being Rewarded Yet Again
    Terrorists Are Being Rewarded Yet Again May 4, 2003 By Robbie Friedmann A few peace activists were injured and at least one was accidentally killed recently when acting as human shields to protect terrorists. Now it turns out that the close proximity of these peace mongers to the terrorists also provided a convenient tactic actually to carry out terrorist attacks. Two British Muslims entered the Gaza strip under the guise of peace activists and then were sent to their deadly mission in Israel ("Bombers posed as peace activists," Jeevan Vasagar, Vikram Dodd and Conal Urquhart, The Guardian, Friday, 2 May 2003). As if no new prime minister has been appointed, the Palestinians continue incessantly with their hateful incitement to violence and murder. Now their official TV has broadcast a video that calls for the killing of Jews, continuing to legitimize their entitlement to murder ("PA TV: Kill Jews of the Disputed Areas," Itamar Marcus, Palestinian Media Watch, Multi-Media Bulletin, 30 April 2003). The terrorists in the Gaza Strip and Judea and Samaria are not the only ones operating and constituting a threat to Israel and the United States. The recent visit of Secretary of State Powell to the region demonstrated the need to focus on other terrorist groups, whom the Syrians call freedom fighters such as the Hezbollah in Lebanon ("Operation Syria: Hezbollah should be on Powell's agenda," Rachel Ehrenfeld, NationalReviewOnline, 02 May 2003). The reactions in the Arab world to the collapse of Iraq's dictatorial regime range from cautious gratitude to outright hostility. Yet an examination of the very critical position by Arab writers vis-a-vis what could be defined as the collapse not just of the regime but that of the current Arab system suffers from the same maladies of which they are so eagerly critical.

  • In Search of a Viable Option Evaluating Outcomes to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict
    Policy Report In Search of a Viable Option Evaluating Outcomes to the Israeli-Palestinian Conflict A report by Dr. Shira Efron and Evan Gottesman, with a foreword by Ambassador Daniel B. Shapiro Is the two-state solution still possible? Are other frameworks better or more feasible than two states? This study seeks to answer these questions through a candid and rigorous analysis. Is there another viable outcome? While the two-state model deserves to be debated on its merits, and certainly on its viability, pronouncements of this formula’s death raise the question: if not two states, then what? About the Study The two-state solution has been widely criticized from the right and the left as an idea whose time has passed and been overtaken by facts on the ground. As a result, many other models for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict have been advanced, from one-state formulas to confederation outcomes to maintaining the status quo indefinitely. How do these proposals for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict — including the recently released Trump plan — measure up against key criteria, like keeping Israel Jewish and democratic, providing security, and ensuring feasibility? Is there a model that fits the needs of both parties while being realistic in practice? This comprehensive study of potential outcomes for the Israeli-Palestinian conflict assesses the strengths and weaknesses of different plans, and trains a critical eye on whether a two-state solution is still possible, concluding that despite the heavy lift it will take to implement, a two-state outcome is not only possible but the only implementable plan that maintains Israel as Jewish and democratic.
