The End of America’s Strategic Alliance with Israel?

by Caroline Glick...In 1922 the League of Nations mandated Great Britain
to facilitate the reconstitution of the Jewish commonwealth in the Land
of Israel on both sides of the Jordan River. The international
community's decision to work towards the reestablishment of Jewish
sovereignty in Israel owed to its recognition of the Jewish people's
legal, historic, and moral rights to our homeland.

Arab propaganda finds this basic and fundamental truth inconvenient. So
for the past 60 years, the Arabs have been advancing the fiction that
Israel's existence owes solely to European guilt over the Holocaust. As
far as the Arabs are concerned, the Jews have no legal, historic, or
moral right to what the Arabs see as Islamic land...

Obama Will Not Make a Difference

by Prof. Sami Alrabaa

Islamic terrorism and a severe global economic crisis added impetus to
his success. Rhetorically talented and charismatic figures usually
flourish in crises. But will rhetoric and charisma help Mr. Obama

Ya'alon said

Educational Reform:
 The PA currently teaches Arab children that the entirety of Israel is an illegal colonialist entity, Yaalon said, and denies any historic Jewish connection to the Land of Israel. In addition, the PA teaches Jihad (holy war) against Israel and honors suicide bombers.

Changing the PA school system to teach the value of life, not of death, and to accurately portray Jewish history is crucial, he said.

Economic Reform:
 In order to create a viable economy, the PA must strengthen small businesses and create a stable middle class, Yaalon said.

Attempts to create a PA economy through international aid have failed due to a corrupt PA leadership that misappropriates funds, and terrorist groups that attempt to keep PA Arabs living in poverty, he said. To avoid the problems posed by corrupt leadership, the world should focus on PA businessmen and support their initiatives.

Political Reform:
Beyond creating a political entity, the PA must allow for freedom of expression, freedom of the press and protect human rights.

Yaalon referred to “the American mistake” of supporting strong dictators over true democratic activists. Activists who seek true democracy and freedom should win encouragement from the West, he said.

Legal Reform:
 The goal should be “One authority, one law, one weapon,” Yaalon said, referring to the disarming of rogue terrorist groups and the enforcement of law throughout the PA territories.

Security Reform:
 The PA must begin to truly fight terrorism, Yaalon said. Among other things, the PA must rid itself of the “revolving door” by which terrorists serve only light sentences, and the sentencing of terrorists who murdered Israelis for “harming the public interest” instead of “murder.” These things encourage terrorism, he said.

On November 15, 1988 Yasser Arafat declared independence for the state of Palestine.
