    Israel, committing suicide slowly. A two state solution is needed, and Israelis need to have a hard look at the joy many of them express at the killing of Palestinians.

  4. Right you are

    Israel care about their survival not about public opinion. The IDF have a missile system to keep their citizens safe, Hamas uses their citizens to keep their missiles safe. The chances of Hamas and Israel talking are non existent. It’s a depressing state of affairs. Even if there was a two state solution there’s very little chance of a lasting peace.

      Is this “Israel uses weapons to keep civilians safe, hamas uses civilians to keep weapons safe” a cut and paste line from some IDF site? It seems to be thrown around a lot as if it somehow justifies the murder of children by the IDF.

      This sums up perfectly the rabid right in the Israeli camp. The screengrab is from an article in May last, and the “war” advocated by Falk is one of nonviolent protest. Just read some of the Twitter responses.

      A quote from the Falk article:

      “Currently, the best prospect for realizing Palestinian self-determination is by way of pressures exerted through the mobilization of a movement from below, combining popular resistance with global solidarity. Such a process, what I have called ‘legitimacy war,’ exemplified by Gandhi’s nonviolent victory over the British Empire and more recently by the success of the global anti-apartheid movement against racist South Africa, represents the latest strategic turn in the Palestinian national movement, and seems even compatible with the recent outlook of Hamas as expressed by its leaders and confirmed by its behavior. ”
