A quote from Jeff Jacoby:"Prime Minister Ehud Olmert’s reaction to last week’s massacre of the innocents was to announce that he would “not give up on making a tremendous effort to take another significant, important, and dramatic step that might bring us to an opportunity for real reconciliation.”
The Israeli Foreign Ministry spouted the same drivel: “These terrorists are trying to destroy the chances of peace,” its spokesman said, “but we certainly will continue the peace talks.” The White House chimed in too: "The most important thing is that the peace process continue and that the parties are committed to it."
Wrong. The most important thing is to recognize that there is a war against Israel by enemies profoundly committed to its elimination -- enemies who regard negotiations, concessions, and all the trappings of the “peace process” as evidence that the Jews are in retreat, and that hitting them even harder will bring victory even closer. That is why there was such jubilation in Gaza. And why last week’s atrocity in Jerusalem was only the latest such horror -- not the last."
(Jeff Jacoby is a columnist for The Boston Globe.)
I very much doubt that the Israeli government at the time of the Entebbe rescue or the Ethiopian upliftment was as concerned wth ‘reconciliation’ as the present one!
