A withdrawal to the 1967 borders will not end the Palestinian-Israeli conflict, Foreign Minister Avigodor Lieberman warned in a speech at the Saban Forum in Jerusalem Saturday. "A return to 1967 borders and the establishment of a Palestinian state in Judea and Samaria will not end the conflict, but rather, shift it into Israel's borders," he said, adding that such circumstances would prompt...

Below is more evidence that Americans' perceptions of the conflict in Palestine has been changing over the years, albeit rather slowly. I am always pleasantly surprised to see honest reporting on Palestine in mainstream American media. Philip Weiss notes "The American lib-left seems to be getting the news that the two-state-solution is having its death rattles (3 years of death rattles, unusual...

Here's another indication that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu understands that the offers made to the 'Palestinians' by Ehud Barak and Ehud Olmert were suicidal and cannot be repeated. The new settlement of Maskiot and the expansion of farmland are just two tangible signs of tension over the area. When Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad issued a two-year development plan, he said he

As an Israeli, it hasn't been pleasant to realize all the corruption in our government. The epitome has been Ehud Olmert. One doesn't hear a word defending his behavior. I'd rather he be condemned for the dangerous policies he supported and the lack of proper planning and thinking before the wars he declared. But if it's his selfish corruption that caught him, at least he's out of office. I know that...

As someone who has already said that I think this man has committed war crimes , I shouldn't be surprised by the news that lawyers are stating that, should Olmert ever visit Britain, there is a very good chance that he could be arrested and face trial for war crimes. Neither Olmert nor Tzipi Livni, the foreign minister during the Cast Lead offensive, and a member of Israel's war cabinet, would enjoy...
