(Canadian Jewish News) Mordechai Ben-Dat - Brig.-Gen. (res.) Yossi Kuperwasser, formerly the chief of the research division of IDF military intelligence and director general of Israel's Ministry of Strategic Affairs, recently published a forceful plea to the countries of the West regarding the Palestinians' conflict with Israel. "Tell the Palestinians that they are not going to get any more money to support this kind of indoctrination [of hatred toward Jews and Israel]. If they want the money, they have to adopt a different approach that enables real peace with Zionism and the Jewish People, an approach that would eventually lead to mutual recognition between a Palestinian state and a Jewish state where everybody recognizes the other's identity as the nation-state of their people." Kuperwasser challenges the international community to demand that Palestinian leaders change their malicious ways. But he goes further. He accuses the West of helping sustain the hatred. "By closing their eyes, the Europeans, and even to some extent the Americans, enable this hatred to go on. How will we ever be able to start moving toward peace when this indoctrination of hatred goes on all the time?"
