Thank you Thank you.
First southern Lebanon (check),
Then Gaza (in progress),
Then the West Bank (*ALL* of it),
Then the Golan,
Then compensation for stolen land,
Then peace.
What should happen to Jerusalem?
...propose a workable solution for Jerusalem.
- Arab neighbourhoods go to palestine (in return for compensatory land from israel).
- Jewish neighbourhoods go to Israel.
- Disputed religious sites are placed under international control.
The path to peace is easy and obvious. It only requires leaders who are not willing to exchange their children's entrails for land....
they are seeing reason. No wonder, with their economy in ruins, near mutiny within the military, and the obvious failure of their security-first strategy. Even Sharon couldn't ignore the facts indefinitely. Let's hope he lasts long enough in office to see the plan through to completion.
So Kokomero is now supporting the Sharon government? What's next? Will Avi vote for Labor? Will Arafat shave? The world makes no sense anymore....
Personally I doubt that Sharon is sincere, although I hope that I am wrong. It would certainly be far easier for him to end the occupation than it would be for a labor Prime Minister. In the words of Leonard Nimoy "Only Nixon can go to China"...
I am equally sceptical about Sharon's real intentions but if it does happen it is certainly a step in the right direction. Let's wait and see if the words get translated into action. I wonder how much arm twisting by the US was required to provoke this "change of heart" by Sharon? Perhaps it is payback time for "WMD evidence" provided by Israeli intelligence??
