Our TV reception is back, and I was getting very annoyed at all the politicians and pundits expounding on how Israel can and should "make peace" with Israel.
Honestly, take a good look at what's really happening on the ground and the airwaves and media etc. Israel is "at peace" with Syria. It isn't attacking and doesn't want to attack.
So, what's standing in the way of peace with Syria, or "peace" with any other Arab country?
If they want peace, there's one very simple thing for them to do. Stop attacking Israel. Yes, since it's a one-sided war, with all the agression coming from the Arabs, Israel shouldln't do anything but wait and defend itself, of course, when necessary.
I'm not the only one saying that even "breathing" the idea of talking to Syria is dangerous.
According to Dr. Dore Gold:
Israel has already accumulated vast experience during the 1990s when it comes to engaging in talks under fire, both with the Palestinians (under the shadow of terror attacks committed by Hamas and other groups) and with the Syria (despite Hizbullah's attacks.)And yes, I do think that on the southern front, it's time for Israel to admit that the ceasefire was a dangerous risk and is a farce. The Arabs keep attacking, launching kasaams at Sderot, the Negev and Ashkelon. Just minutes ago, two innocent Israelis were injured.
These diplomatic contacts failed to bring about a stable agreement and even led to escalation on both fronts – operation "Grapes of Wrath" in Lebanon and the outbreak of the second Intifada following the Camp David failure.
