What
should Israel do to stop this outrage?
Three years ago, Israel abandoned the Gaza strip and
evicted the over 8,000 Jewish residents who had lived there for generations
and who had created an island of civility, industry and prosperity. What
has been Israel’s reward for its generosity?

Is it a solution to the Arab/Israeli conflict or a recipe for disaster?
For decades, the declared thrust of the Palestinians
has been their desire of having their own state – in Judea/Samaria
(the “West Bank”) and in the Gaza Strip. Now, a new idea has
taken hold and is propagated in national media: a binational state, encompassing
those territories and “Israel proper.” The slogan is “One
Land for Two Peoples.”

What
can the world, what can Israel do to restore order?
About two years ago, yielding to the pressure of “world
opinion,” Israel decided to abandon Gaza and to withdraw the about
8,000 Israelis who had lived there for generations and who had created
flourishing agriculture and successful industry.?

| An
Urgent Letter
from FLAME President,
Gerardo Joffe |

March
2008
Dear Friend
of Israel, dear Friend of FLAME: |
I wrote you last just before the convening of the
Annapolis Conference — one in a very long series of meetings
and conferences that would supposedly resolve the seemingly unending
conflict between Israelis and Muslims. Or, perhaps better put, the
resolute quest of the Arabs and most other Muslims to destroy the
state of Israel and to kill the Jews.
It didn’t take much insight to predict that
this conference, too, would, like all others before it, end in failure.
Nothing would be resolved, nothing achieved. The reason, of course,
that these conferences end without really ever anything being achieved
is that, while Israel is willing and offering wide-ranging concessions,
that certainly is not the case with Israel’s enemies. They
do not conceive of compromise. It is all or nothing and has been
that way for 60 years. However they may word it for the consumption
of the world at large...
