-Caveat Lector- : Doomed By Eyad Elsarraj It is not just a new wave of violence. It is : not rioting. It is not young Palestinians throwing stones and get killed : by : Israeli gunfire. It is much more than all that. And it has to do with a : message. The message was on the board, but they had no desire for : reading. Israelis never wanted to know. To them Palestinians are far : away, : may be living on a different globe, but certainly not here. For a long : time, Palestinians did not exist. Now that they do, they are and should : be : distant. There was a rare chance for Israel to look deep into its soul : when the Intifada rocked the area ten years ago. Then, Palestinian : leader : Arafat extended his hand for peace by offering recognition of Israel. : Palestinians were asking in return for the end of the military : occupation : and to have their own state in the West bank and Gaza, less than a third : of : their country, Palestine. Shamir, then Israel's prime minister, flatly : rejected Arafat's offer. Israel continued to shelter itself inside a : shell : refusing to acknowledge the Palestinians or its responsibility of their : uprooting and destruction of their life. There was a second chance for : Israel with the Madrid peace process to recognize that it can no longer : keep the occupied land of the West bank and Gaza. The opportunity was : real : and historic with a presence of Palestinian leadership who was ready and : able to sign a peace treaty. The world was waiting, the Arabs were : ready, : and the American Jewish leaders and the American president were : pressing. : And when Rabin elevated himself to seize the rare moment, he was : instantly : killed. Israel chose Netanyahu instead. The peace process went : limping, : but continued. Yet Israel could not face the moral questions on who is : responsible for the Palestinian refugees and how can she implement the : United Nations resolutions on their right of return. Neither she could : conceive of relinquishing the Palestinian land. So in the final hour : Israel unleashed its political instruments backed by its military : machine : in order to extract itself from the possible peace. First Sharon, the : war : criminal of Sabra and Shatila was allowed to force himself into the : Muslim : holy mosque. Did the Israeli establishment not consider the Arab and : Muslim reaction? Sure they did, and sure they knew what exactly would : happen in the streets of Jerusalem, Gaza and Hebron. Sure they issued : orders to the highly acclaimed disciplined army of the "brave" to shoot : and : kill. They wanted violence in order to kill the peace process as they : could : not kill another Israeli leader. Israel is sick, terrified of peace, : terrified of looking inside, terrified of recognizing the monster : within. : Israel is doomed. : ===================================================== : Comment: : It doesn't take a great brain to figure this out. israel has decided to : return to the path of oppression. I think they are certifiably crazy, : but the zionist ideology has always defied rational moral analysis. : RLA <A HREF="http://www.ctrl.org/">www.ctrl.org</A> DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion & informational exchange list.
