The Jews vs. The Palestinians
Olmert seeks a ‘realistic’ future of peace
In his speech at the opening of parliament’s winter session, Olmert said Israel would have to give up some of its deepest desires — an apparent reference to vacating Israeli settlements in the West Bank. Palestinians too “will have to deal with the need to concede part of their dreams in order to build with us a realistic, if not ideal, if not perfect” future of peace and security, he added.
The ongoing struggle for the holyland is as old as religion. I applaud Olmert’s efforts.
Could it be a blessing to have no ancient history?
