Nothing is lacking for the making of peace but the Arab persistence in denying Israel's very right to exist. Nothing can wrench out of our hearts or out of our policy this wish for peace, this hope of peace — not even our indignation over the killing of our loved ones, not even the enmity of the rulers of the Arab world. - Golda Meir read full story / add a comment

The Camp David II summit and the "Aqsa intifada" that followed have confirmed what everyone had long known: Jerusalem is the knottiest issue facing Arab and Israeli negotiators. In part, the problem is practical: the Palestinians insist that the capital of Israel serve as the capital of their future state too, something Israelis are loathe to accept. But mostly, the problem is religious: the ancient city has sacred associations for Jews and Muslims alike (and Christians too, of course; but Christians today no longer make an independent political claim to Jerusalem), and both insist on sovereignty over their overlapping sacred areas. In Jerusalem, theological and historical claims matter; they are the functional equivalent to the deed to the city and have direct operational consequences. Jewish and Muslim connections to the city therefore require evaluation. read full story / add a comment

The situation in Palestine has become more and more extreme in the last couple of weeks. Reports are emerging regularly which detail the use of mass internment against Palestinian civilians living in refugee camps.
Many Israelis and foreign observers have been taken aback at the dark symbolism of reports of internees having numbers printed on their skin. read full story / add a comment

I am a producer of a current affairs slot for the community radio station Near FM. I am intrested in speaking to anyone from the Coolock and Darndale areas of north Dublin who were present at the Reclaim the Streets demo last month. Of particular intrest is anyone who had to make a complaint about Garda conduct, as I wish to focus on the Gardai's handling of the aftermath. If you can help me please contact me at 085 7272545 read full story / add a comment

In video footage that will remain etched on memories for a long time to come, Israeli TV broadcast the lynching of Israeli soldiers by a furious Palestinian mob in the West Bank town of Ramallah. The film, shot by an Italian television crew, showed dozens of enraged Palestinians storming the police station where the soldiers were being held after they had been captured by Palestinian police. A Palestinian grabs one of the Israelis (who was in plain clothes) Gruesome scenes were visible through an open window as the mob savagely beat and stabbed two or possibly three of the soldiers to death. Then a body was thrown from an upstairs window. The frenzied crowd clapped and cheered as more blows were rained down on the lifeless figure by the crowd outside. Rising anger Four men had been travelling in an unmarked car that was somehow apprehended on a street in Ramallah. read full story / add a comment
