Palestinian Fantasy Blocks Mideast Peace
(Detroit News) Nolan Finley - The new U.S. peace plan is actually more honest and realistic than its predecessors. It should be the blueprint for Israel and the Palestinians to finally become peaceful, prosperous neighbors. But it will go nowhere because the Palestinians still cling to an all-or-nothing fantasy which has them ruling "from the river to the sea," with the Jews driven away. "Peace may have to wait for a new generation, new leadership," says former Israeli ambassador to the U.S. Danny Ayalon, who spoke over the weekend to the Jewish Federation of Metropolitan Detroit. "At this point, Palestinians continue to claim the entire land. They still teach their children that the whole land is theirs, and they're going to get it."
